Effect of Electric Current Direction on Texture Evolution in a Cold Rolled Fe-3Si Steel under Electric Current Pulses Treatment

摘要

The effect of electric current on the recrystallization texture evolution with the rolling direction both parallel and perpendicular to the current flow during electric current pulses (ECP) treatment was investigated. The results showed that the exerted current direction played a great role on the formation of recrystallization texture {111}<112> and Goss texture {011}<100> at the primary stage of recrytallization induced by ECP treatment. However, with the current density increasing, the effect of current direction on texture evolution almost could be ignored and the final texture components in the two cases all are Goss texture.
