Texture and Ductility of Ni3Al Foils

Article Preview

Abstract:

This article presents the texture evolution and the ductility improvement of the cold-rolled foils of boron-free Ni3Al during the recrystallization and the subsequent grain growth. The cold-rolled foils had sharp {110} textures. After the recrystallization at 873K/0.5h, the texture was disintegrated with several texture components. Interestingly, most of them had a single rotation relationship. i.e. 40˚ around <111>. With the progress of the grain growth, however, the texture returned to the sharp, cold-rolled textures. This two-stage texture evolution, called as “Texture memory effect”, was explained assuming a high mobility of the grain boundary with the 40˚<111> rotation relationship. The texture returning was highly effective to improve the ductility of the foils.
