Abstract

The deformation and recrystallization textures in straight-rolled and cross-rolled AA 3105 aluminum alloy were investigated by x-ray diffraction to determine the role of oriented growth in the formation of the P recrystallization texture. A very strong P texture was developed in the straight-rolled sheet after recrystallization annealing. In contrast, the cross-rolled sheet did not develop the P texture on annealing even though the cross-rolling (i.e., rolling along the original transverse direction) texture contained more orientations close to the P orientation than the straight-rolling texture. The formation of the P texture in aluminum alloys requires the presence of the C component, since the P orientation has a 31.1°〈122〉 orientation relationship with respect to the C orientation. The recrystallization texture in the cross-rolled sheets was in excellent agreement with the oriented growth theory.
