{111}<110> Recrystallization Texture Evolution in Al-Mg-Si Alloy Sheets Fabricated by Symmetric/Asymmetric Combined Rolling Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

A new rolling process, which combined asymmetric rolling with symmetric rolling, was adopted in age-hardenable 6xxx series Al-Mg-Si alloy promising as automotive body panels in order to develop favorable textures for the deep drawability after solution treatment. Symmetric cold rolling at high reduction and subsequent asymmetric warm rolling at low reduction for AA6022 sheets led to the formation of “TD-rotated β-fiber texture” including moderate {111}<uvw>-oriented components, resulting in noticeable evolution of {111}<110> recrystallization texture during the solution treatment at a high temperature. The results of texture analysis and microstructural observation suggested that the low stored energy after asymmetric warm rolling, the high fraction of high angle boundaries with neighboring deformed matrices and the approximate 40° <111> orientation relationship with deformed matrices would strongly affect the evolution of {111}<110> recrystallization texture.
