Cold rolling and salt bath annealing simulation were conducted to study the evolution of microstructure and textures of a commercially produced Titanium stabilized interstitial free steel by means of optical microscopy and X-ray texture measurement. The results show that all of the as cold-rolled specimens are completely recrystallized after annealing. As the cold-rolling reduction increases, the recystallized ferrite grains are refined, The intensities of the stable {114} and {223} components remain strong after recrystallization. The orientation intensity of the {111} and {111} also increases accordingly. As the cold-rolling reduction increases to 90%, the intensity of {111} tend to be higher than that of {111}.

Microstructural evolutions of the 4Al alumina-forming austenitic steel after cold rolling with different reductions from 5% to 30% and then annealing were investigated using electron backscattering diffraction (EBSD), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Tensile properties and hardness were also measured. The results show that the average grain size gradually decreases with an increase in the cold-rolling reduction. The low angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) are dominant in the cold-rolled samples, but high angle grain boundaries (HAGBs) form in the annealed samples, indicating that the grains are refined under the action of dislocations. During cold rolling, high-density dislocations are initially introduced in the samples, which contributes to a large number of dislocations remaining after annealing. With the sustaining increase in cold-rolled deformation, the samples exhibit more excellent tensile strength and hardness due to the decrease in grain size and increase in dislocation density, especially for the samples subjected to 30% cold-rolling reduction. The contribution of dislocations on yield strength is more than 60%.

The cold rolling and annealing texture formation has been investigated in electro deposited pure iron which has an extremely sharp and isotropic <111>//ND fiber. Regardless of cold rolling reduction, {111}<112> intensified texture is formed after cold rolling. Similar texture remains after recrystallization in 65% cold rolled material while {111}<110> type texture forms in 80% and 90% cold rolled ones. The recrystallized grains at the stage of 5% recrystallization have {111}<112> orientation in 65% cold rolled sheet, whereas {111}<110> is observed in 80% cold rolled one. From this aspect, it is considered that the nucleation orientation plays an important role in the recrystallization texture formation. In the meanwhile, the growth of the recrystallized nuclei is also supposed to affect the recrystallization texture formation. The nuclei with {111}<112> orientation in lightly cold rolled sheet are easier to consume the deformed matrix than they do in heavily cold rolled sheets because their frequency to encounter a deformed grain with nearly the same orientation is much smaller in lightly cold rolled specimen, which can result in a large mobility for growth. Cross cold rolling makes cold rolling texture rather homogeneous <111>//ND fiber, which gives rise to an almost homogeneous <111>//ND fiber after annealing.

AbstractA novel medium manganese steel with composition Fe–8.3Mn–3.8Al–1.8Si–0.5C–0.06V–0.05Sn was developed and thermomechanically processed through hot rolling and intercritical annealing. The steel possessed a yield strength of 1 GPa, tensile strength of 1.13 GPa and ductility of 41 pct. In order to study the effect of cold rolling after intercritical annealing on subsequent tensile properties, the steel was further cold rolled up to 20 pct reduction. After cold rolling, it was observed that the strain hardening rate increased continuously with increasing cold rolling reduction but without a significant drop in ductility during subsequent tensile tests. The microstructural evolution with cold rolling reduction was analysed to understand the mechanisms behind this phenomena. It was found that cold rolling activated additional twinning systems which provided a large number of potent nucleation sites for strain induced martensite to form during subsequent tensile tests in what can be described as an enhanced TRIP effect.

A textural analysis was carried out to explain the cause of the planar anisotropy of r-value of cold rolled plain extralow-carbon steel sheets. For a detailed analysis, a model for calculating r-values from ODF-data of texture was applied and the influence of each or a group of crystal orientations of the recrystallization texture on the planar anisotropy of r-values was studied. The following results were obtained:A development of {111}〈110〉−{443}〈110〉−{332}〈110〉−{221}〈110〉 enhanced the V-type planar anisotropy of r-values. A decrease in the intensity of these orientations by increasing the cold rolling reduction or the refinement of the hot band microstructure reduced the r-values in L and C directions and hardly affected the r-value in D direction, and as a result, the V-type planar anisotropy of r-values was improved. On the other hand, an increase in the intensity of {111}, {334} orientation by increasing the cold rolling reduction or the refinement of the hot band microstructure raised r-values in sequence of L < D < C directions and contributed to the reduction of V-type planar anisotropy of r-values as a whole.

A Cu-24 wt % Ag composite alloy is prepared to reveal the evolutions of microstructures, mechanical properties and textures formed by cold rolling. A typical alternating distribution of Cu and Ag phase layers is observed, which becomes much finer with increasing cold rolling reduction. Copper texture ((112)<11-1> texture) and Goss texture ((110)<001> texture) with high intensities are found in the Cu phase of cold rolled samples. Ag phase containing strong Goss texture and weak Brass texture are observed, quite different from the case in cold rolled pure Ag. Significant change of textures, from the Goss texture to (111) textures with increasing rolling reduction, has been found of Ag phase. The strengthening mechanism of this Cu-Ag composite is described by a equation similar to the HallPetch relationship, the fitted results based on which shows good agreement with the experimental data when the layer thickness is lower than 100-200 nm.

The texture change due to the increase of cold rolling reduction in Fe-Mo-Ni-C alloys is described. Orientation Distribution Functions (ODF) for samples cold rolled 80%, 90%, 97% and 99% are shown and discussed. Below 90% cold rolling reduction, the texture in these alloys is similar to that of cold rolled low carbon steels. Above 90% cold rolling reduction, a decrease in the component {001}〈110〉 is observed and the texture becomes weaker probably due to the development of shear bands. Magnetic age-annealing at 610°C for 1 h does not recrystallize completely these alloys. Samples cold rolled above 90% (97% and 99%) present an increase in the {001}〈110〉 component, this being responsible for a corresponding increase in the magnetic anisotropy of these alloys.

Cold-rolling process is an important stage in Ti+P-IF steel manufacturing process, and cold rolling reduction is a main parameter. The research of recrystallization microstructure change and texture evolution of Ti+P-IF steel in cross cold rolling reductions has important meaning in study of high strong IF steel. In this paper, hot rolled Ti+P-IF steel in austenite was studied, cold rolling reduction was used as the effect factor, The study was carried out on the basis of microstructure observation, TEM analysis and texture measurement. The sizes of the grains within the recrystallization organizations were gradually diminished as the cold rolling reduction increased. At the same time, the second phase particles had showed an aggregated distribution, and there is a rule in the components of the texture that the Goss texture and the Rotating cube texture are transformed intoγtexture evolution rule.

Twinning behaviors in grains during cold rolling have been systematically studied in preparing ultra-thin grain-oriented silicon steel (UTGO) using a commercial glassless grain-oriented silicon steel as raw material. It is found that the twinning system with the maximum Schmid factor and shear mechanical work would be activated. The area fraction of twins increased with the cold rolling reduction. The orientations of twins mainly appeared to be α-fiber (<110>//RD), most of which were {001}<110> orientation. Analysis via combining deformation orientation simulation and twinning orientation calculation suggested that {001}<110> oriented twinning occurred at 40–50% rolling reduction. The simulation also confirmed more {100} <011> oriented twins would be produced in the cold rolling process and their orientation also showed less deviation from ideal {001}<110> orientation when a raw material with a higher content of exact Goss oriented grains was used.
