Contribution of Process Annealing on the Development of Microstructure and Texture of Cu-30Zn Brass

Table 3

Texture trend of final annealed gauge (from L1 to L3).

Texture orientation	Texture trend
Cube, L, Bs	Strength gradually increases from L1 to L3.
R	Highest strength in L1. Lowest strength without process annealing.
S, CG	First increase then decrease. Highest strength in L2.
Cu, Taylor, Z	Highest strength in L1 and decease and constant in L2 and L3.
G, H, CH, C	Highest strength in L1, decreases in L2, and then increases in L3.
