PREFERRED ORIENTATION IN THORIUM
The deformation fiber texture of extruded Ames thorium was found to be <111>. Recrystallization occurring during the fabricating process produced <001> or <114> fiber textures. Annealing subsequent to extruding resulted in duplex <115>-<236> or <0l3>-<4,10,l3> fiber textures in rods having <111>-<001> as- extruded textures. Multi-component textures were round in thorium sheet cold- rolled from an extruded bar. The components for a 75% reduction were {148} <411>, {011} <322>, and {034} <100>- whereas the components for a 95% reduction were near {113} <211>, near {011} <211>, and {011} <100>. The annealing texture for thorium sheet reduced 75% was {017 <100> which is 8 from the cube'' texture, and that for a 95% prior reduction wns {001} , the cube'' texture. (auth)
