Surface - energy - induced Selective Growth and Magnetic Induction in 3% Si - Fe Strip |
| Abstract |
The {111}＜112＞ deformation texture, which originated from the {110}＜001＞ texture near the surface of hot bands, is not prerequisite for the recrystallized {110}＜001＞ Goss texture. During final annealing, surface-energy-induced selective growth of grains occurs at the strip surface of 3%Si-Fe alloys containing 6 ppm bulk content of sulfur. With decreasing final reduction, the probability that Goss grains survive under the highly segregated sulfur atmosphere and have a chance for later surface-energy-induced selective growth becomes higher, resulting in high magnetic induction. |
