Microstructure and Texture Evolution during Recrystallization of a Fe-Mn-C Alloy

Abstract:

Microstructure and texture evolution of a 60% cold-rolled Fe-22.3Mn-0.3C alloy during annealing at 550°C were studied. Shear bands, triple junctions and grain boundaries were found to be the preferential nucleation sites. The orientations of the nuclei from these sites were found to be mainly random, but also partly located in α-(//ND) and γ-fibers (//ND). After annealing, fine recrystallized grains formed with abundant annealing twins which had a strong impact on the texture development. The final texture was of low intensity and revealed a weak α-fiber.
