Abstract
The effect of silicon addition on the recrystallization texture of titanium-bearing sheet steel containing different amount of carbon in solution was investigated. The addition of silicon effectively developed {554}<225>recrystallization texture. This occurred when the specimen was annealed not only at a slow heating rate but also at a rapid heating rate. The changes in the annealing texture were regarded to have arisen as results of the effects of the decrease in solute carbon content and the stronger component of {111}<112> in the cold-rolled states.
