Study of Crystallographic Texture Evolution during High-Temperature Deformation of 18Cr-ODS Ferritic Steel based on Plasticity Assessment.

This paper aims at understanding the texture evolution in extruded oxide dispersion strengthened 18Cr ferritic steel during high-temperature uniaxial compression testing at 1,423 K at a strain rate of 0.01/s based on extensive electron back scatter diffraction characterization. The α-fiber texture is observed along the extrusion direction (ED) in the initial microstructure.
