Evaluation of intragranular misorientation parameters measured by EBSD in a hot worked austenitic stainless steel.
An extensive characterization of hot deformed austenitic stainless steel was carried out using the electron backscatter diffraction technique. Special emphasis was given to the misorientation parameters related to different length scales. These parameters show a behaviour that is sensitive to the amount of applied strain and also lead to increasing values for both the strain and the scale length. At the same time, the use of different thresholds and scan steps in the evaluation of the parameters were analyzed in order to assess the validity of the results.
