Al-Mg-Si alloy was rolled asymmetrically at several temperatures to apply shear deformation, and the effects of the initial precipitate on shear deformation, texture evolution, formability, and plastic anisotropy were studied. Texture was analyzed using a EBSD, and the formability and plastic anisotropy of the specimen were evaluated using the value and value calculated from the plastic strain ratio (r-value) which was determined from the change in the length of the specimen during tensile deformation. Asymmetric rolling induces a larger equivalent strain than symmetric rolling, and the equivalent strain increases as the asymmetric rolling temperature increases. When a specimen with peak-aged initial precipitates was asymmetrically rolled, less shear deformation occurred at room temperature than in a solution-treated specimen without initial precipitates. In contrast, a larger shear deformation occurred at high temperatures (500°C). With asymmetric rolling at room temperature, the specimens without initial precipitates had higher formability and lower plasticity, while for asymmetric rolling at high temperature, the specimens with initial precipitates had higher formability and lower plastic anisotropy. This is due to the <111>//ND texture, such as {111}<110> and {111}<112> orientation that has similar and high r-values at 0°, 45°, and 90° to the rolling direction, developed by the shear deformation that occurred during asymmetric rolling.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
