Samples of AA3004 aluminium alloy pre-deformed by ECAP and annealed at 265°C and 280°C have been prepared to the observations in scanning electron microscope (EBSD/SEM).
I tried to calculate the percentages of the various components of texture of faded 20-degree for each of samples of AA1050 aluminium alloy- in the initial state, deformed in ECAP die and rekrystalized (partially).
Texture components were defined as:
- C = {112} <111> - „Copper”;
- S = {123} <634> - „S”;
- G = {110} <001> - „Goss”;
- B = {110} <112> - „Brass”.
The measurements were done in cross-section ND-TD and TD-ND but I wanted to transform data into rolling (plane ED-TD).Issue has been difficult.
