In a low carbon steel containing 0.56% Cu and 0.054%C, a recrystallization texture similar to that of aluminium killed steels is obtained by a process in which the hot strip is austenitized at 950°C for 30 min, quenched into water, cold-rolled to 70% reduction and finally annealed at 700°C for 3hrs with a heating rate of 100°C/hr. The main preferred orientation in the recrystallization texture is {111}‹110›.
The intensity of the {111}‹110› component after the final annealing strongly depends on the heating rate. The sharp {111}‹110› preferred orientation does not develope in a similar steel containing 0.56% Cu and 0.008%C, showing that the carbon content has a critical effect on the development of the {111}‹110› oriented recrystallized grains.
