Notes:
The respective rôles of precipitation hardening and reversible martensite reactions have been analysed in relation to development of textures in 17 %Ni-8 %Co-4 %Mo steel. Cold-rolling textures after 90 % reduction are independent of the heat treatment prior to rolling, and are described as mainly {001}〈\bar 110〉α′, and {557}〈\bar 110〉α′, components, with a {111}〈\bar 1\bar 12〉α′, component of lower intensity. The corresponding recrystallization textures produced by annealing in the austenite region vary according to prior heat treatment: solution-treated material exhibits a recrystallization texture consisting mainly of {557}〈\bar 110〉α′, and {̃510}〈\bar 150〉α′, components, whereas when precipitation of Ni3Mo takes place before the recrystallization anneal, the texture is more diffuse and contains, in addition to these components, a more even distribution of orientations which fie within a 〈111〉 fibre texture normal to the rolling plane. It is considered that the {557}〈\bar 110〉α′ + {̃510}〈\bar 150〉α′, recrystallization texture could be accounted for by a double shear transformation α′ → γ → α′, combined with texture sharpening during recrystallization in the austenite. It is necessary to invoke variant selectivity during the shear transformation in order to explain the absence of certain groups of orientations in the final α′ texture. The effect of Ni3Mo is attributed to restriction of grain boundary mobility in the austenite, so preventing sharpening of the texture at this stage by recrystallization.
