Abstract
This paper presents a systematic survey on the formation of recrystallisation textures in cold rolled Al alloys. In particular, the nucleation of new grains in cube bands, grain boundaries, shear bands, and the deformation zones around large pProceedings of Conference 'Texture on a Mircoscale' as well as their subsequent growth into the deformed matrix are examined and discussed in the context of their contribution to the final recrystallisation textures. In addition to X-ray macrotexture analysis, particular attention is focused on the determination of local orientations by electron diffraction either in the transmission electron microscope (microbeam electron diffraction) or, at later stages of recrystallisation, in the scanning electron microscope (electron backscattered diffraction). A combination of these complementary techniques for orientation determination with increasing spatial resolution yields much more valuable information on the underlying mechanisms of recrystallisation than is accessible by the sole use of the individual techniques.MST/3676
