Abstract
Preferred orientations in rolled and annealed titanium sheets were determined by the Geiger counter spectrometer X-ray diffraction technique. Five annealing textures dependent upon the temperature range of annealing were found, and in order of increasing annealing temperature are: 1—a deformationlike texture, 2—a rotated a-recrystallization texture, 3—a retained a-recrystallization texture on annealing at lower temperatures of the β-region, 4—a transformation texture based on recrystallized a and predicted by the Burgers’ relationship, and 5—a β-cube texture. These results are examined in terms of current theories of recrystallization textures.
