CHAPTER 1
WHAT IS TEXTURE?
• In latin, textor means weaver

• In materials science, texture is the way in which a polycrystalline material is


woven

Texture of a textile Texture of a polycrystal


WHAT IS TEXTURE?
 The difference of crystallography and texture.

 The intrinsic and simulative points of view.

 Dependence of properties on orientation in single


crystals

 Preferred orientation in poly crystals.


WHAT IS TEXTURE?
What is a crystallite?
•Limited volume of material in which periodicity of crystal lattice is present.
•Each of these crystallites has a specific orientation of the crystal lattice
WHAT IS TEXTURE?

Real Situation:
Many grains have common orientation,
but they are spatially apart
WHAT IS TEXTURE?
MICROSTRUCTURE-PROPERTIES RELATIONSHIP
Material Tetrahedron: A representation of different stages of materials
engineering leading to product design

Anisotropy
WHY DO WE STUDY TEXTURE?
 Anisotropy in physical and
mechanical properties.
(two types of anisotropy: morphological
and textural)

 Homogeneity and inhomogeneity


in grain size

 Misorientation between the


adjacent grains
DEPENDENCE OF MECHANICAL PROPERTIES TO ORIENTATION
 Minerals (ice, salts, rocks, ores)

 Metals and their alloys


(steel, magnesium, intermetalics)
 Ceramics
(silicates, oxides, carbides, nitrides)

Orientation map (a) and


the corresponding {0001}, {11-20}, {10-10} pole figures (b)
showing the texture characterizing the 5%LM (LaMnO3 )doped
BFO (Bismuth Iron Oxide, BiFeO3 ) thin film;
colors relate to the normal direction i.e. z-axis; iso values for the
peak intensities 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24 mud
 Bio-Materials
(bones, teeth, skin, shells)

Variation in diffraction intensity of the (002) pole figures in the cortical bone portion of the rabbit ulna regenerated for 4 weeks after
surgery, with (a) and without (b) bFGF.
The texture was analyzed at the arrowed lateral portion near the neighboring radius. The center of the pole figures corresponds to the
longitudinal direction, ND (arrow direction).
The area with an intensity 1.5 times higher than that of randomly oriented BAp is shown in blue; the local maximum of the intensity is
marked by a solid triangle.
 Polymers (crystalline particles)

Pole figures of orthorhombic crystals of linear polyethylene

 Composites
(MMC, fiber glass, wood)

Al-SiC composites
Reinforcement tends to randomize texture

 Powders (weak textures)
