Abstract
The study addresses the effect of magnesium and other alloying elements on rolling “β-fiber” texture formation during hot deformation of aluminum alloys. For the study, flat cast ingots from three aluminum alloys with variable magnesium content were deformed in a Gleeble testing unit with different parameters of thermomechanical treatment. Immediately after completion of deformation, the samples were quenched using an automatic cooling system and the microstructure and crystalline texture was analyzed by optical microscopy and X-ray analysis. The analysis demonstrated that an increase in alloying components, magnesium in particular, leads to an increase in brass-type texture and a decrease in S and copper-type texture. The reason was that the simulation of the deformation texture development revealed a great contribution of impurity atoms rather than the decrease in stacking fault energy.
Highlights
The improvement of casting and thermomechanical treatment practices is one of the most demanding aspect of modern material science [1,2,3,4,5,6]
The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of magnesium content on the development of the key β-fiber texture components during hot deformation
Effective methods of this factor accounting during deformation texture modeling shall be demonstrated
Summary
The improvement of casting and thermomechanical treatment practices is one of the most demanding aspect of modern material science [1,2,3,4,5,6]. In industrially pure aluminum alloy Al 99.5 (AA1050) the β-fiber intensity is higher on the copper side {112} (φ2 = 45◦) and shifts at higher strains towards the S texture {123} (φ2 = 65◦), whereas the brass component {110} (φ2 = 0◦/90◦) develops relatively low [18].
