Abstract |
Grain-oriented electrical steel is used as a core material in transformers and motors. To obtain improved magnetic properties from the grain-oriented electrical steel, the steel should have a strong {110}<001> Goss texture. Recently, controlled manufacturing processes have been employed for developing electrical steels with a strong Goss texture. It is important to carry out research on the {411}<148> and {111}<112> oriented grains in relation to coincidence site lattice (CSL) boundaries, as they have an effect on the easy growth of the Goss grains upon secondary recrystallization. In this study, the behavior of the {411}<148> and {111}<112> oriented grains, which are neighbored with Goss grains after recrystallization with rapid and typical heating rates, and after decarburization, was examined by using x-ray diffraction (XRD) and electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD) measurements. In the decarburized specimen, the Goss grains encroached the {411}<148> and {111}<112> oriented grains to a greater extent with a rapid heating rate than with a typical heating rate, and larger Goss grains were observed with the rapid heating rate. The {111}<112> oriented grains especially affect the easy growth of the Goss grains, as they are located near the Goss grains. Therefore, larger Goss grains can be produced at rapid heating rates, and the product is estimated to exhibit improved magnetic properties after secondary recrystallization. †(Received December 2, 2015; Accepted March 7, 2016) |
