The effect of cold rolling and annealing treatments in two temperatures, 800°C and 900°C on texture formation in duplex steel (X60MnAl30-9) was examined. Texture measurements were carried out using X-ray diffraction and Schulz reflection technique. The mechanical properties i. e. 0.2% proof stress, ultimate tensile strength and elongation were measured for each experimental conditions. It was found that ferrite was characterized by the orientations of a fibre which could be found in cold rolling state and also after the annealing in both temperatures. The weak orientations close to g fibre were observed after the annealing. The cold rolling texture of austenite was a typical texture of cold rolled fcc metals. No significant changes in texture of austenite after the annealing treatments were found.

The static recrystallisation behaviour of cold rolled and annealed TWinning Induced Plasticity (TWIP) steels is important for its industrial production. The recrystallisation kinetics have been determined for an Fe-Mn-C-Si-Al TWIP steel using hardness measurements and microstructure analysis: it has been shown that recrystallisation progresses rapidly with increased annealing temperature. Recrystallisation was faster at higher cold reductions, and a smaller final grain size was observed at lower annealing temperatures. This indicates that the mechanism is nucleation dominated at lower temperatures; grain growth at higher temperatures appears similar for all reductions. The recrystallisation results in a crystallographic texture where the main components of the cold rolling texture are preserved in the final texture after annealing, although some randomisation was observed.

Al-brass alloys (Cu29.5Zn2.5Al wt. %) were produced by gravity casting and homogenized at 800?C for 2 h, resulting in a binary phase morphology identified as cubic ? and martensitic ?? phases through X-ray diffraction (XRD). Samples were then subsequently cold rolled and annealed at 150, 300, 400, and 600?C for 30 minutes. Visible traces of slip, intersecting slip bands, and shear bands were observed in microstructure images of the samples after each progressive deformation stage. Deformation-induced martensites were present after 20 % cold rolling. Higher thickness reduction resulted in simultaneous strain hardening of the phases. Low temperature annealing slightly increased microhardness, of both ? and ??, due to the formation of precipitates. SEM-EDX analysis showed that no solute segregation was found in annealed samples. Annealing at higher temperature resulted in conventional softening. Recrystallized equiaxed ?? phase grains were visible after annealing at 600?C.

A TWinning Induced Plasticity (TWIP) steel was cold rolled to 42% thickness reduction followed by isochronal annealing for 300 s between 600-850 °C. Bulk texture evolution during recrystallisation was investigated by X-Ray Diffraction. While the development of the α-fibre after cold rolling is typical of low stacking fault energy materials, anomalously higher intensities were noted for the Goss ({110}) compared to Brass ({110}) orientations. Upon recrystallisation, the main rolling texture components were retained and ascribed to nucleation at orientations close to those of the deformed matrix followed by annealing twinning which leads to crystallographically identical variants. Unlike previous texture investigations on austenitic steels, the relatively homogeneous deformation microstructure and uniform distribution of subsequent nucleation sites led to the retention of the F ({111}) orientation. Moreover, the firsthand observation of the Rotated Copper ({112}) orientation in TWIP steel is attributed to the second order twinning of the A ({110}) orientation.

The texture of an extra low-carbon and high strength bake-hardening sheet steel (i.e. ELC-BH sheet) processed in our laboratory through a new invented technology has been investigated by means of ODF method, so that the cause of the very high r¯-value of this sheet has been discovered. Experimental results are shown as follows: ① The r¯-value of the experimental sheet treated by the new process is as high as 2.67 and this is the highest r¯-value published so far for phosphorus – added high strength and deep drawing sheet steels. At the same time, the contradiction between deep-drawability and strengthening is successfully solved too. ② A nucleus of the new technology is supplying a good cold rolled parent state which benefits to the development of {111} annealing textures through controlling texture, while strong development of {111} annealing textures can cause very high r¯-value. ③ The cold rolling and annealing texture obtained by the new technology are quite different as compared with that of conventional process. New cold rolling texture has stronger {111} components and weaker {100} components than conventiopnal cold rolling texture. The concentrations of {111} components of new annealing texture are not only distinctly general increase but also the crystal orientations corresponding to the peak values of orientation concentrations of the texture have been also changed from conventional (1¯11)[11¯2] orientations to (1¯11)[01¯1] orientations.

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%.

AA6016 aluminum alloy with a strong β fiber rolling texture was cold rolled to different reductions by means of a special deformation method (side rolling in Chinese). The texture development during side rolling was investigated by X-ray diffraction. The typical B, S and C orientation on the β fiber are transformed into the B'{111}, S'{22 17 9} and C'{011} orientations, respectively. The results show that these orientations are unstable and gradually rotate to the B orientation in the new sample reference frame.
