Study on the Grain Rotation of High-Purity Tantalum during Compression Deformation

A compression experiment with electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) measurements was designed to characterize the effect of the microtexture on the grain rotation process. The rotation degrees of more than 180 grains before and after the compression were calculated. Results showed that grains with different crystallographic orientations experienced various rotation degrees. Furthermore, grains in certain microtexture regions also had varying degrees of rotation. The compression led to the lattice rotation and change in orientation of individual grains, but the relative misorientation between grains has not changed much in the microtexture region. The microtexture region, as a whole, participated in the compression process. The similar slipping behavior of the grains in the region promoted the slip transmission between the neighboring grains. Thus, the amount of piled-up dislocations at grain boundaries inside the microtexture region are less than that at grain boundaries outside the microtexture region, leading to a small stored energy density for grain boundaries inside the microtexture region.
