Recovery and Recrystallization Study after Low Deformation Amount by Cold Rolling in an IF-Ti Steel

Abstract:

The first steps of recovery and recrystallization in an IF-Ti steel after 40% cold rolling have been studied using the Electron Back Scattered Diffraction (EBSD), Orientation Imaging Microscopy(™) (OIM) and the Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). As it is well known, for low deformation amounts by cold rolling, recrystallization texture exhibits the g fiber (ND // <111>) with a reinforcement of the {111}<110> orientation. In order to understand this {111}<110> development during recrystallization, characterization of the deformed state was performed. Different microstructures were distinguished: lamellar bands for the {111}<112> grains of the g fiber and coarse elongated cells for the {111}<110> orientation that belongs to the a and g fibers. Whatever the initial dislocation structure, the recovery step seems to be characterized by coalescence and growth of existing cells in the recovered matrix. Then nucleus growth seems to occur by sub-boundary migration. The first steps of recrystallization mainly take place by continuous growth of subgrains including or not the bulging of grain boundaries.
