Secondary Recrystallization of Grains with Cube Orientation for Pure Iron Tape

Abstract

Abstract The formation mechanism of secondary recrystallized grains with cube orientation has been investigated for a pure iron tape prepared by a three-stage cold-rolling method. The crystal orientation before the final cold-rolling affected the appearance of secondary recrystallized grains with cube orientation. The {0 ī 2}<1 0 0> orientation before the final cold-rolling led to the formation of secondary recrystallized grains with cube orientation on the tape surface.
