In this study, 48 hot-rolling processing conditions were designed to investigate the influences of thermomechanical processing parameters on the recrystallization behavior and texture development. The hot-rolling experiments were conducted using the thermomechanical simulator Gleeble 3800 at temperatures of 275, 300, and 350 °C with strain rates of 5 and 90 <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msup><mrow><mi mathvariant="normal">s</mi></mrow><mrow><mo>−</mo><mn>1</mn></mrow></msup></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> up to 60 and 85% reduction. The microstructure and texture analysis were measured by using the EBSD technique on a large area. Experimental results show that the Cube component maintains a volume fraction between 10% and 20%, below the 40% recrystallization fraction, but the volume fraction of Cube significantly increases between 20% and 50% above the 40% recrystallization fraction. However, the fractions of Rotated Cube (RC) and Goss components remain below 10%.
