Similar Texture

CoCrNi equiatomic medium entropy alloy sheets were prepared by asymmetric rolling, cryorolling, and asymmetric cryorolling. The asymmetric cryorolled samples exhibited a noteworthy ultra-fine-grain heterogeneous lamella structure. The microstructure and corresponding hardness obtained by different rolling processes and subsequent annealing are compared. It can be seen from the results that the cryogenic deformation temperature had a stronger effect on the mechanical properties of the medium entropy alloys (MEA), compared with the shear strain caused by the asymmetric cryorolling. The effect of annealing temperature on texture components and volume fractions of the specially rolled samples was also analyzed. The result revealed that the recrystallized MEA exhibited similar texture components and the corresponding volume fraction, which indicated that the rolling process had limited influence on the formation of annealing texture. The recrystallized texture after annealing retained the deformation texture and twin related orientations appeared. Asymmetric rolled MEA showed strong random composition than symmetric rolled MEA regardless of rolling temperature. The recrystallized textures of the species obtained by the three rolling processes did not exhibit a significant dependence on the annealing temperature.

Crystal Orientations

The core loss and magnetic induction of electrical steels are dependent on the microstructure and texture of the material, which are produced by the thermo-mechanical processing. After a conventional rolling process, crystal orientations of the α-(//RD) and γ-(//ND) fibers are strongly present in the final texture. These fibers have a drastically negative effect on the magnetic properties of electrical steels. By applying asymmetric rolling, significant shear strains could be introduced across the thickness of the sheet and thus a deformation texture with more magnetically favorable components is expected. In this study, an electrical steel of 1.23 wt.% Si was subjected to asymmetric warm rolling in a rolling mill with different roll diameters. The evolutions of both deformed and annealed textures were investigated. The texture evolution during asymmetric warm rolling was analyzed by crystal plasticity simulations using the ALAMEL model. A good fit between measured and calculated textures was obtained. The annealing texture could be understood in terms of an oriented nucleation model that selects crystal orientations with a lower than average stored energy of plastic deformation.

The evolution of annealing texture of non-oriented grain silicon steel as a function of annealing temperature was investigated from hot rolled samples taken from industrial production. Hot band samples were annealed at 900°C, cold rolled to final thickness of 0.5mm in a single stage cold rolling process or in two stages with intermediate annealing at 900°C, and final annealed in the temperature range from 540°C to 980°C. The results show that the [001]||RD fibre is an important recrystallization texture component, but it may be consumed by further grain growth and become a minor component. The effect of grain growth in the temperature range investigated seems to be that of strengthening the main components at the expenses of the others. The results suggest that to avoid the reduction of the [001]||RD fibre on grain growth a volume fraction ratio between the texture components (111)[112] and (110)[001] close to unity is necessary after recrystallization. This can be obtained under conditions that enhance [001]||RD fibre on recrystallization, such as: strong [111]ND fibre in the deformation texture, large initial grain size and enhanced grain boundary mobility, by proper composition and purity.

Cold Rolling Texture

AA5754 sheet has been processed by asymmetric rolling and the development of grain structure and texture in subsequent annealing studied at 240-500°C. It has been found that asymmetric rolling facilitates the formation of ultra-fine grain structure (1-2µm grain size) by shear strain promoted continuous recrystallization, which is a process of extended recovery and subgrain/grain growth. The ultra-fine grain structure is not thermally stable, and when the annealing temperature or time increases, the grain size eventually grows to its Zener limit. The deformation texture is similar to the typical f.c.c. cold rolling texture but rotated about the transverse direction. Along with the formation of an ultra-fine grain structure and subsequent grain growth, the deformation texture is retained.

Continuous Recrystallization

The development of grain structures after asymmetric rolling (ASR) and annealing was investigated in Al-Mg alloys AA5754, AA5182 and AA5083. It has been demonstrated that a fine grain structure could be produced through continuous recrystallization, but it is strongly affected by the presence of large second phase particles. In AA5754 the volume fraction of large particles is relatively low and continuous recrystallization is able to occur throughout the sheet thickness, resulting in a fine grain structure of 2μm mean grain size. In AA5182 the fraction of large particles increases to a level that the continuous recrystallization occurs only in the sheet surface, whereas the sheet centre undergoes discontinuous recrystallization. The discontinuous recrystallization due to particle stimulated nucleation (PSN) is dominant in AA5083 so that no continuous recrystallization has been observed. The fully recrystallized grain structure is slightly finer in the ASR processed AA5083 than the conventionally rolled one.

Aluminum And Magnesium Alloys

In order to develop favorable textures for deep drawing of Al-Mg-Si and Mg-Al-Zn alloys that are promising as automotive body panels, we have adopted the symmetric/asymmetric combination rolling (SACR) process consisting of conventional symmetric rolling and subsequent asymmetric rolling at relatively low reduction. The combination of symmetric cold rolling and asymmetric warm rolling for AA6022 sheets leads to the formation of “TD-rotated β-fiber texture”, resulting in the evolution of {111} recrystallization texture after solution treatment at a high temperature. The SACR processed and solution-treated sheets show a high average r-value with small in-plane anisotropy, and consequently the limiting drawing ratio increases significantly, compared to that of the cold-rolled and solution-treated sheets. In the case of AZ31 magnesium alloy, the SACR process by hot rolling causes the formation of a unique texture, which shows two (0001) poles with tilt angles of 0 and −40 degrees from the normal direction (ND) toward the rolling direction (RD). In addition, subsequent annealing weakens intensity of the double-peak texture, so that the drawability is greatly improved in comparison with that of the conventional warm-rolled sheets with a strong basal texture. At the same time, yield strength decreases to some extent, but the SACR processed and annealed sheets exhibit a good balance of strength and formability due to a mixed texture with basal and tilt components.

Simultaneous Processing

Extrusion-torsion simultaneous processing is a very attractive technique for fabricating a rod-shape material with fine grain and random texture. We have proposed a new screw form rolling process combined with preliminary extrusion-torsion simultaneous working. Microstructure evolution and mechanical property change of AZ91D magnesium alloy during extrusion-torsion simultaneous processing was examined through microstructure observation, X-ray diffraction analysis and micro-Vickers hardness measurement. By the addition of torsion, the crystal orientation of AZ91D magnesium alloy workpiece was drastically changed from basal crystalline orientation to the random orientation. Crystal grain occurred through the dynamic recrystallization and tended to coarsen with an increase of extrusion-torsion temperature. Grain refinement under 2 um was achieved at the lowest extrusion-torsion temperature of 523 K. M8 gauge AZ91D magnesium alloy screw was successfully formed at room temperature using the extrusion-twisted workpiece preliminary solution treating at 678 K for 345.6 ks. It was found that the extrusion-torsion temperature of 678 K must be selected to fabricate the good screw without any defects.

Aluminium Layer

The paper presents the results of the experimental study of the three-layer Al-Mg-Al sheets rolling process by the ARB method. The tests carried out were limited to single-pass symmetric and asymmetric rolling processes. An Al-Mg-Al package with an initial thickness of 4 mm (1-2-1 mm) was subjected to the process of rolling with a relative reduction of 50%. To activate the shear band in the strip being deformed, an asymmetry factor of av=2 was applied. From the test results, an increase in the tensile strength of the multi-layer Al-Mg-Al sheets obtained from the asymmetric process was observed. Microhardness tests did not show any significant differences in aluminium layer between respective layers of sheets obtained from the symmetric and the asymmetric process. By contrast, for the magnesium layer, an increase in microhardness from 72 HV to 79 HV could be observed for the asymmetric rolling. The analysis of the produced Al-Mg-Al sheets shows that the good bond between individual layers and grain refinement in the magnesium layer contributed to the obtaining of higher mechanical properties in the multi-layer sheets produced in the asymmetric process compared to the sheets obtained from the symmetric process.

Lamella Structure

Grain refinement can make conventional metals several times stronger, but this comes at dramatic loss of ductility. Here we report a heterogeneous lamella structure in Ti produced by asymmetric rolling and partial recrystallization that can produce an unprecedented property combination: as strong as ultrafine-grained metal and at the same time as ductile as conventional coarse-grained metal. It also has higher strain hardening than coarse-grained Ti, which was hitherto believed impossible. The heterogeneous lamella structure is characterized with soft micrograined lamellae embedded in hard ultrafine-grained lamella matrix. The unusual high strength is obtained with the assistance of high back stress developed from heterogeneous yielding, whereas the high ductility is attributed to back-stress hardening and dislocation hardening. The process discovered here is amenable to large-scale industrial production at low cost, and might be applicable to other metal systems.

Research Hotspots

5083 aluminum alloy, due to moderate strength, good thermal conductivity and formability, is an ideal structural material for car production. Influence of cold rolling process on microstructures and mechanical properties of 5083 aluminum alloys is significant and research hotspots. In this paper, cold deformation and annealing processes on grains, tensile properties and anisotropies of 5083 alloy sheets were studied. Results showed that incomplete recrystallization occured on 5083 alloy sheets when annealing temperature was at 300°C. The degree of recrystallization increased slightly with the cold deformation raised from 30% to 50% and varied slightly with prolonged annealing time from 2h to 4h. Furthermore, fully recrystallization occurred on 5083 alloy sheets at the annealing temperature above 320°C. Tensile strength of 5083 alloy sheets reduced significantly when the annealing temperature was raised from 300°C to 320°C, while it varied slightly when the annealing temperature continued to rise to 380°C.
