Abstract

There is currently no general agreement on how to extract the volume fraction of texture components for aluminum alloy sheets based on X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) techniques. In order to clarify this problem, grain orientation data of AA5754 sheet material in the O-temper were acquired using XRD and EBSD. The volume fractions of 10 selected texture components were calculated using the MTM FHM software package for XRD and EDAX-TSL OIM Analysis for EBSD. The measured grain orientation data from EBSD were then processed again using MTM FHM. The results show that there are no significant differences in the constructed pole figures using different measuring techniques when the same analysis system is used. Thus, the differences in volume fractions of texture components are mainly related to the deviation angle used in the two different software packages. The differences in the deviation angle used lead to potential overlaps between the selected texture components. A suitable deviation angle for the volume fraction calculation can be selected using the concept of misorientation.
