A study on recrystallization behavior and recrystallization texture of high pressure heat-treated Al–Mg alloy.

Cold rolling the CC AA 5754 aluminum alloy to different reductions was followed by an hour of annealing at 537 °C under varied pressures. The changes in microstructure and texture were studied. According to the findings, high-pressure heat treatment restricts recrystallization, and the restriction effect is stronger as pressure rises. The refining impact of high-pressure heat treatment can refine recrystallized grains, and it becomes stronger as the rolling reduction gets higher. The variation of recrystallization texture is significantly affected by high-pressure heat treatment. The sheet with a 19.6% reduction is found to have a weak cube texture at atmospheric pressure and 2 GPa, but the sheet that has been annealed at 4 GPa and 6 GPa has a strong cube texture and a weak β fiber rolling texture. High-pressure heat treatment improves the intensities of the cube and R textures in the fully recrystallized sheets with the same reduction. The strengthening impact of R texture from high-pressure heat treatment improves with increasing rolling reduction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
