Abstract
A considerable texture gradient in the through thickness direction was observed during hot rolling of Nb - Ti and V - Nb microalloyed steels. The most intense deformation texture for Nb- Ti steels was {113}〈110〉 at all depths, whereas for V - Nb steels the plane was shifted to {115}〈110〉 ; the angular difference between {113} and {115} is about a degree. The recrystallisation texture of austenite, {100}〈001〉 , transformed into {100} 〈011〉 component in the ferrite and indicated an increase in the intensity with increase in depth for both Nb - Ti and V - Nb steels. However, the intensity of this {100}〈011〉 texture was less for Nb - Ti steels compared to V - Nb steels at all depths. The reduced intensity of {100}〈011〉 texture in Nb -Ti steels is likely to be the reason for the superior formability and improved toughness of Nb - Ti steels as compared with V - Nb steels. The {100}〈011〉 type of texture has an undesirable effect on the edge formability of steels.
