Evaluation of the orientation distribution of intragranular ferrite grains dynamically formed during deformation in a V-added low carbon steel by EBSD
The effect of V(C,N) precipitates on the orientation distribution of intragranular ferrite grains dynamically formed during deformation was investigated by EBSD method. V(C,N) precipitates acted as nucleation sites for the ferrite grains but the orientation relationships of ferrite grains with V(C,N) precipitates were not observed. Orientation of ferrite grains can be best described as random when plotted against the B-N relationship with V(C,N) precipitates.
