Abstract
In this report, the orientation changes during recrystallization and “Sammelkristallisation” were considered from a crystallographic point of view. Growth rotation twins occur during annealing, and the texture becomes (110), [001]. We have observed clearly by the etching figure method that the axes of rotation are [110] and [112]. We have conisdereid from these experiments the mechanism of orientation changes during cold-rolling and annealing, and from these fundamental considerations, we have been able to obtain silicon-steel sheets that have good magnetic anisotropic property by a skin pass (reduction 2∼6%) followed by low temperature annealing.
