Characterization of Microstructure and Texture in Grain-Oriented High Silicon Steel by Strip Casting
Grain-oriented 4.5 wt% Si and 6.5 wt% Si steels were produced by strip casting, warm rolling, cold rolling, primary annealing, and secondary annealing. Goss grains were sufficiently developed and covered the e...
