Vj. Martinez et al., Interstitial free steel - Influence of alpha-phase hot-rolling and cold-rolling reduction to obtain extra-deep drawing quality, MATER CHAR, 46(1), 2001, pp. 45-53
This paper shows the drawing properties of Ti-bearing interstitial free ste
el. The study was carried out on the basis of microstructure, mechanical pr
operties and texture using X-ray diffraction techniques and orientation dis
tribution function (ODF) analysis. The results obtained prove the influence
of each stage of processing to achieve extra-deep drawing quality (EDDQ),
focusing our attention on hot-rolling and cold-rolling reduction. It is dem
onstrated that the optimum cold-rolling reduction increases to 90% for both
r(m) and Deltar coefficients. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights re
