Abstract
To investigate the preferential distribution of grain boundary planes in a hot rolled aluminum alloy, the electron backscattered diffraction approach and five‐parameter analysis method are used to characterize the grain boundary plane distributions in a hot rolled 5A06 aluminum alloy, and the results show that the orientations of grain boundary planes are textured. Grain boundary planes favor the {111} orientation at the center of the specimen, and their population is 56% higher than that in a random distribution, whereas grain boundary planes favor the {110} orientation on the surface of the specimen, and their population is 69% higher than that in a random distribution. Moreover, this anisotropic distribution of grain boundary planes occurs at all misorientation angles. The study suggests a new understanding of the pathway to evaluate the crystallographic orientation dependent performances.
