The effect of warm-rolling on the evolution of microstructure and microtexture was investigated in a duplex steel. For this purpose annealed duplex steel plates were cold and warm-rolled up to 90% reduction in thickness at room temperature and at 625°C, respectively. The austenite volume fraction decreased consistently during cold-rolling indicating that austenite was not stable during cold-rolling. In contrast, austenite was found to be very stable during warm-rolling at 625°C. Development of an ultrafine lamellar deformation structure with alternate arrangement of the ferrite and austenite bands could be observed during warm-rolling. A strong pure metal or copper type texture was observed in the austenite in the warm-rolled material in contrast to brass texture developed during cold-rolling. Development of RD (RD//<110>) fiber and ND-fiber (ND//<111>) was observed in ferrite during both cold and warm-rolling. However, the strength of the RD-fiber was much higher as compared to the ND-fiber in ferrite in cold-rolled DSS as compared to the ferrite in warm-rolled DSS.

The tensile properties and damping capacity of cold-rolled Fe–20Mn–12Cr–3Ni–3Si alloys were investigated. The martensitic transformation was identified, including surface relief with a specific orientation and partial intersection. Besides, as the cold rolling degree increased, the volume fraction of ε-martensite increased, whereas α’-martensite started to form at the cold rolling degree of 15% and slightly increased to 6% at the maximum cold rolling degree. This difference may be caused by high austenite stability by adding alloying elements (Mn and Ni). As the cold rolling degree increased, the tensile strength linearly increased, and the elongation decreased due to the fractional increment in the volume of martensite. However, the damping capacity increased until a 30% cold rolling degree was approached, and then decreased. The irregular tendency of the damping capacity was confirmed, depicting that it increased to a specific degree and then decreased as the tensile strength and elongation increased. Concerning the relationship between the tensile properties and the damping capacity, the damping capacity increased and culminated, and then decreased as the tensile properties and elongation increased. The damping capacity in the high-strength area tended to decrease because it is difficult to dissipate vibration energy into thermal energy in alloys with high strength. In the low-strength area, on the other hand, the damping capacity increased as the strength increased since the increased volume fraction of ε-martensite is attributed to the increase in the damping source.

Present work describes the evolution of microstructure and texture in W-26Ni-26Fe-13Co and W-28Ni-12Fe-10Co alloys during cold rolling. These alloys consist of two phases i.e. W-base (bcc) and matrix (fcc) in sintered and cold rolled conditions. Microchemistry obtained by electron Probe Micro Analyser (EPMA) clearly indicates that the extent of alloying is very less in W phase. The matrix phase mainly consists of Ni, Fe Co and W. The development of texture in both the W and matrix during cold rolling has been described in terms of α, γ and β fibres for bcc and fcc phases, respectively.

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}.

Copper foils with 91% cold rolled deformation annealed at temperature between 140°C and 170 °C.The microstructures were observed by EBSD. The mechanical properties were measured at room temperature by tensile test machine and the fracture morphologies observed by SEM. After annealed at 150 °C, recrystallization begins to occur, while the elongation increases evidently and tensile strength decreases sharply. When the temperature rises to 170 °C, recrystallization is complete and the grain starts to grow. When the foils are annealed at 140 °C, it exhibits a strong cold rolling textures characterized by Brass {011}<211> and Cu {112}<111>. After annealed at 170 °C, there are olny weak Brass {011}<211> texture.

Effect of intense plastic straining on rollability and service properties of an Al-6%Mg-0.3%Sc alloy was examined. Ultrafine-grained structure (UFG) was produced by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) to a strain of 8 at a temperature of 325oC. The formation of UFG structure resulted in increase in the yield stress from 223 MPa to 285 MPa and ultimate stress from 350 MPa to 389 MPa in comparison with initial hot extruded condition. Total elongation slightly decreased from 33% to 29%. After ECAP, the material was subjected to cold and isothermal warm rolling. The formation of UFG structure resulted in enhanced rollability of the present alloy at room temperature. Cold rolling with high reduction provides the development of heavily deformed microstructure with high dislocation density, while the isothermal warm rolling does not remarkably affect the microstructure produced by ECAP. The mechanical properties after ECAP and ECAP with subsequent isothermal rolling were roughly similar. In contrast, cold rolling to the same strain resulted in significant increase of yield stress (495 MPa) and ultimate stress (536 MPa). Total elongation attained was 13%.

In this study, we evaluated the effects of a mechanical treatment by cold rolling (CR) and ball milling (BM) on the first hydrogenation of Ti1V0.9Cr1.1 alloy. The as-cast alloy has a body-centered cubic (BCC) crystal structure, and the first hydrogenation at room temperature under 20 bars of hydrogen is practically impossible. However, the samples mechanically activated by CR or BM readily absorbed hydrogen. The sample cold-rolled for one pass exhibited faster kinetics than the sample ball-milled for five minutes, but both samples reached the same storage capacity of 3.6 wt % hydrogen. Increasing the amount of rolling or the milling time decreased the hydrogen capacity. CR is considered the best and most efficient method for the activation of Ti1V0.9Cr1.1 alloy.

Effect of cold-rolling and annealing time on the microstructure, hardness and the tensile properties of Haynes 25 superalloy at room-temperature and 760 °C were investigated in this research. Hot-rolled and solutionized alloy of Haynes 25 was subjected to cold-rolling with different amounts of reductions, i.e. 5%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 35%. After that, all cold-rolled samples were annealed at 1230 °C for a period of time from 2 to 120 min. Microstructural analysis showed that for annealing time range from 30 to 120 min, the rate of grains coarsening remained approximately stable in all cold-rolled samples. On the other hand, the hardness results showed that expected decreasing trend of hardness did not occur after annealing of the cold-rolled samples at 1230 °C; on the contrary, hardness increased moderately in the range time from 10 to 120 min. Tensile properties after annealing of the cold-rolled samples at room temperature and 760 °C decreased. Loss of the tensile properties can be related to the high annealing temperature. According to the experimental results, decreasing trend of tensile properties and increasing trend of hardness is linked to the formation of hcp phase after annealing at 1230 °C for 30 min. Even though the hcp phase is a hard phase, the interface between fcc and hcp phases provides suitable sites for crack nucleation and propagation.

Using cold rolling, we plastically deform AA6061 sheets at room temperature and investigate the variations of the microstructures, textures and local deformation of the cold-rolled AA6061 sheets as functions of thickness reduction (Δt/t0, t0 and t are the thicknesses of the AA6061 sheet before and after the cold rolling, respectively). The volume fraction of total deformation texture is relatively independent of the thickness reduction for Δt/t0 ≤ 30%, and becomes an approximately linearly increasing function of the thickness reduction for Δt/t0 > 30%. Increasing the thickness reduction causes the increase of the Vickers hardness of the cross-section of the cold-rolled sheets, which exhibits a similar increase trend to the volume fraction of total deformation texture for Δt/t0 > 30%. A simple relation between the Vickers hardness and the thickness reduction is established and is used to curve-fit the experimental results.
