Development of Recrystallization Textures in Deep-Drawing Steels, Measured by X-Ray Diffraction and EBSD

摘要

The development of recrystallization textures in two low carbon steels used for deep drawing has been investigated through measurements of global textures (by X-Ray diffraction) and local orientations (by EBSD, Electron Back Scattering Diffraction). The global measurements allow a quantitative description of the recrystallization textures whereas the local measurements allow to identify some of the nucleation and growth mechanisms responsible for the development of the recrystallization textures. It is thus shown that preferred nucleation and growth of the (111 ) grains takes place in both steels, sometimes accompanied by nucleation of random orientations and limited growlh of these grains, in the presence of coarse cementite particles.
