Effect of Normalization Process on the Microstructure and Properties of Annealed Cold-Rolled Sheet of Oriented Silicon Steel

Article Preview

Abstract:

Research object of this article is a type of oriented silicon steel in 3.07% silicon content. By comparing samples under normalization and non-normalization respectively after primary recrystallizing annealing and secondary recrystallizing annealing, we have figured out how normalization influenced the recrystallizing behavior. The EBSD data of samples showed that normalization can half the grain size after primary recrystallizing, raise the percentage content of favored grain boundaries and high-angle grain boundaries, increase the content of Goss orientation grains by 5 times. And normalization coarsens the secondary recrystallizing grains, triples the magnetic induction and reduces the iron loss by half.
