A combined model of oriented nucleation and selective growth is proposed to describe primary recrystallization in interstitial-free (IF) steels. The model includes oriented nucleation at high Taylor-factor orientations together with orientation transformations (OTs) about selected <110> axes over a misorientation range that includes the {Sigma}9, {Sigma}11, {Sigma}19a, and {Sigma}33a type coincidence site lattice (CSL) relationships. It is shown that only one or two of the six possible <110> rotation axes operate in a given grain and at a particular grain boundary. These are the ones closest to the maximum shear stress (MSS) poles for cold rolling. The present study suggests that IF steels display particularly sharp textures (compared to plain C steels), because the factors that favor the selection of the transformation axes and the more rapid growth of CSL boundaries operate more effectively in these materials.
