Abstract

The texture evolution of continuous cast (CC) and direct chill cast (DC) AA 3003 aluminum alloys during cold rolling was investigated by X-ray diffraction. The relationship between texture volume fractions and rolling true strain was described quantitatively by mathematical formulae. The effect of processing method (CC vs. DC) on texture evolution was determined.
