The Effect of Rolling Rates on the Texture Development of Polycrystalline Copper

Abstract

The effect of rolling rates on the texture development of polycrystalline copper has been studied by means of X-ray and reflection electron diffraction techniques. Copper polycrystals with nearly random initial orientations were rolled under low and high speeds; 0.01 and 100 m/min. The following results were obtained:<BR>Below the reduction about 75%, the effect of rolling rate on the textures could hardly be observed and the intermediate type textures were developed.<BR>Above about 75% reduction, the difference of the rolling rates was clearly reflected on the textures. The development of the ideal orientations of {211}⟨\bar111⟩ and {513}⟨\bar121⟩ were retarded during the high-speed rolling.<BR>Although the {111} pole figures at the 94% reduction were characterized by the pure metal type texture at both rolling speeds, the analysis of the texture parameters showed that the rolling texture developed under the high-speed rolling was transformed to the alloy type by about 40%.<BR>It may be considered that the decrease of the crystallites having ideal orientations of {211}⟨\bar111⟩ and {513}⟨\bar121⟩ in the high-speed rolling was caused by mechanical twinning and a lowering of the thermal activation for deformation.
