Texture evolution during the cold rolled low carbon steel sheet under CSP technology

In this item, the low carbon steel hot sheets by compact strip production (CSP) technology were cold rolled and annealed in laboratory. texture evolution during the production process of CSP-cold rolled strip were investigated by means of the XRD. The results were as follows: After hot deformation of thin slab formed a strong gamma- fibre orientation texture, the density of texture increase with the cold rolled reduction increased, especially for the negative texture {100} < 011 >, in gamma-fibre orientation cold rolling texture density has no significant change. Compared to the traditional process, hot rolled steel sheet has higher texture, cold-rolled steel sheet has the same texture, and after-annealing sheet has further higher texture in the CSP-cold rolling process. This study enables better understanding and control on the evolution of textures the cold-rolled steel sheet processed by CSP technique and provides theory support for exploiting the CSP the cold-rolling deep drawing steel sheet
