Title
Microstructural characterization of the austenite behaviour during metadynamic recrystallization
The work discusses the recent findings obtained from the microstructural characterization of an austenitic Ni-30%Fe model alloy during metadynamic recrystallization (MDRX) using both EBSD and TEM techniques. The characterization of the grain structure, texture and dislocation substructure evolution of the fully dynamically recrystallized (DRX) microstructure during post deformation annealing revealed a novel softening mechanism occurring under the current experimental conditions. It is proposed that the initial softening stage involves rapid growth of the dynamically formed nuclei and migration of the mobile boundaries in correspondence with the well-established MDRX mechanism. However, the sub-boundaries within DRX grains progressively disintegrate through dislocation climb and dislocation annihilation, which ultimately leads to the formation of dislocation-free grains. Consequently, the DRX texture largely remains preserved throughout the annealing process.
