Abstract:The stratified texture measurement on industrial nonoriented hotrolled electric steel with various silicon content was conducted by using Xray diffractionSchulz backside reflection. The results show that the texture of top layer of hotrolled higher silicon electrical steel sheet is dominated by (1-10)[001] with trace (3-31)[55-3] texture and in the center there is mainly(001)[11-0].There is small amount of (1-10)[1-1-1]、(1-10)[2-2-1] and (5-51)[111-] texture is the top layer of hotrolled low silicon electrical steel sheet, while the center is mainly (001)[11-0], but the intensity is lower than that of high silicon electric steel.Thus The texture distribution in the thickness direction for both high and low silicon electrical steel sheets follows some pattern, ie.,in the top layer there is mainly (110)[001] and in the center there is mainly (001)[11-0], but the intensity is different. There is a significant change of texture intensity with the temperature change of hot rolling. The effect of hot rolling temperature on texture of hotrolled electric steel with different silicon content is different.
