Effect of Annealing Time on the Microstructure and Texture of Interstitial Free Steel

Article Preview

Abstract:

Effect of annealing time on the microstructure and texture of IF steel sheets was investigated. Average grain size, grain boundary character and recrystallization texture were measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) in order to clarify the effect of annealing time on microstructure of recrystallization process. The average grain size increased with increasing annealing time. With rising annealing time, the number of low angle boundary (0~15o) decreased due to the mergence of grain with sub-boundary. The //ND (-fiber) pole intensity had a highest value annealed at 60s. The annealing time played an important role in recrystallization process which affected the mechanical properties and microstructure of IF steels.
