The analyses of texture evolution of cold rolled interstitial free (IF) steel sheets during annealing and recrystallization are presented, in which the dispersion curves of surface acoustic waves (SAW) excited by laser-induced transient thermal grating method are measured. The results show that the angular anisotropy of the SAW velocity changes due to the texture changes at different stages of recrystallization. The theoretically simulated angular dispersion of SAW velocity within individual crystal revealed that the change of SAW velocity is closely related to recrystallization texture evolution. A model for the angular dependence of the SAW velocity in textured polycrystalline IF steel with different oriented crystals is presented and the simulations are yielded, which show that the results agree with those of experiments.

Interstitial-Free steel (IF-steel) sheets were severe plastically deformed using a continuous equal-channel angular extrusion/pressing technique called “Equal-Channel Angular Sheet Extrusion (ECASE). After processing, texture development as well as microstructural alteration and tensile properties were investigated. The microstructural investigations revealed that the processed sheets exhibited a dislocation cell and/or subgrain structures with mostly low angle grain boundaries. It was also observed that the strength of the processed sheets increased substantially after ECASE processing in the expense of ductility. It was shown that the ECASE has moderate influence on the texture of IF-steel sheets through route A. Intially there was θ partial fiber which changes to {110}θ with straining.

Precipitates have great influence on the recrystallization, texture evolution and thus the final mechanical properties of the Interstitial-Free (IF) steel sheets, however, very few studies have dealt with the precipitation behavior of IF steels warm rolled in ferrite region. In the present work, the precipitate characteristics (type, morphology, size and amount) of warm-rolled ordinary Ti-stabilized Interstitial-Free (Ti-IF) steel and p-added high-strength Ti-IF steel were investigated by Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) and Energy Dispersion Spectrometer (EDS). The results show that most precipitates in warm-rolled ordinary Ti-IF steels are TiN, TiS, Ti4C2S2 and TiC. Besides these precipitates, a great amount of FeTiP precipitates exist in warm-rolled P-added high-strength Ti-IF steel. The precipitation of FeTiP retards the migration of grain boundary in the recrystallization annealing, so the {111} texture and thus deep drawability of warm-rolled high-strength Ti-IF steel is deteriorated.

The development of deformation texture and microstructure was examined for four different initial textures. IF steel sheets with a majority of α-, ε-, and γ-fiber and near random texture were prepared and cold rolled. The specimens exhibited characteristic behaviors in rolling texture evolution and deformation-induced misorientation development, according to their initial textures, especially at small strain levels. Due to the orientation dependence of intra-granular misorientation accumulation, the different texture evolutions affected the induced misorientation distribution. A larger fraction of γ-fiber orientations was related to more prominent misorientation development, while the initial texture stability simultaneously affected the misorientation development. The unstable, initial ε-fiber texture showed a stronger tendency of misorientation accumulation than the stable α-fiber during the subsequent cold rolling.

T.M.C.P.(Thermo Mechanical Control Processing) has been widely used to improveplastic formability in steel strips. We have produced interstitial free steel(IF steel) strips and ferriticstainless-steel strips through T.M.C.P. rolling method. Optimizing conditions of hot rolling, hotrolled annealing, cold rolling and cold rolled annealing, we developed texture prediction model. Wecan predict rolling texture accurately using the conventional Taylor model. Moreover, we preciselypredict recrystallization texture classifying the total number of microscopic􀀁 slips which arecalculated using the Taylor model. We consider that these calculated results provednucleation-oriented model and two types of recrystallization and grain growth mechanisms exit inour studies. One mechanism is that grains which had the small total number of microscopic slips arepreferred orientation for the hot rolled and annealed ferritic stainless-steel strip. The othermechanism is that grains which had the high total number of microscopic slips are preferredorientation for the cold rolled and annealed IF steel strip.

An AC magnetic field (0.5Tesla) is applied with the field direction perpendicular to the rolling direction during annealing of a 76% cold-rolled IF steel sheet. Microstructure and texture evolution in the as-annealed specimens were determined using SEM based OIM technique. It is found that the recrystallization is noticeably retarded by AC magnetic field annealing. At the early stage of recrystallization (annealing at 650°C for 30min), the development of (111) <123> orientations was favored by the AC magnetic field. With progress of recrystallization (annealing at 700°C and 750°C for 30min), the applied AC magnetic field suppressed the development of γ-fiber recrystallization textures to some extent.

The aim of this work is to investigate the relationship between the deformation microstructure and texture in cold rolled Interstitial Free (IF) steel sheets. In the present research, the cold rolled IF steel sheets with 10%-50% reductions are used to observe the characteristic microstructure and individual orientations by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and SAED patterns. The experimental results on inter-granular strain homogeneity and dislocation wall formation are given in details in this paper. The results are explained by the analysis of crystallographic gliding and are helpful to improve the prediction of cold rolling textures.

The effect of micro-alloying elements of niobium and boron and titanium on recrystallization behavior is researched after the cold rolled IF steels are annealed at high temperature. The results show that there is high density dislocation in the cold rolled steel and the microstructure is fibrous tissue. The recrystallization grains appear when the cold steel annealed at 655 °C and then the grains grow up with the annealing temperature increased to 840 °C. The recrystallization temperature and time of B-Ti-IF steel is lower than that of Nb-Ti-IF and Ti-IF steels. The recrystallization activation energy of Nb-Ti-IF steel is 181.7KJ/mol which is 56.6KJ/mol larger than that of B-Ti-IF steel.

High magnetic field is applied with the field direction parallel to the rolling direction during annealing of a cold rolled IF steel sheet. Results of X-ray ODF analysis show that, magnetic field annealing retards the normal recrystallization texture evolution for the IF steel sheet. It is worth noting that an abnormal increase of orientation intensity at {100}<110> is found after magnetic annealing for 25min at 650°C. When the magnetic field strength is increased from 10 Tesla to 14 Tesla, the a-fiber is further strengthened, especially the {100}<110> component. Combined with EBSD analysis results, it is considered that the magnetic field does not change the mechanism of recrystallization texture evolution for the IF steel sheet in the present case.
