EBSD Investigation of Cold Rolled and Recrystallized Titanium

Article Preview

Abstract:

EBSD investigation of texture and microstructure evolution during a complete thermomechanical treatment of commercially pure titanium (HCP-Ti) is presented. Titanium was cold rolled to reach various degrees of thickness reduction: 20%, 40% and 60%. Next, annealing in air atmosphere was conducted at different conditions to achieve the recrystallized state. EBSD topological maps were measured on RD-TD and RD-ND surface of each sample. Strong heterogeneity of deformed titanium microstructures is described with focus on the important role of twinning mechanisms. Texture evolution in investigated titanium appears to be limited, especially in recrystallized state. However some subtle mechanisms are discussed.
