Abstract

The following article looks at using scanning electron microscopy- electron back scatter diffraction techniques to study recrystallisation structures produced through hot rolling of 436 ferritic stainless steel. Characterisation of recrystallisation textures was undertaken through analysis of misorientation angle distribution diagrams, orientation distribution function maps, inverse pole figures and Taylor factor maps. These techniques were applied in a case study where typical industrial hot rolling conditions were simulated through uniaxial compression tests in a Bähr Dilatometer 850D, whereby the effect of strain rate and interpass time on recrystallisation structures was investigated.
