The initial material was a hydrostatically extruded sample that underwent additional heat treatment. Before HPT deformation, the disks were heat treated at 1200°C for 5 mins. to relieve the stresses. The starting Fe-based material was characterized by a strong fibre <111> texture and coarse columnar grains with an average size of approximately 200 μm. The HPT process alters the initial <111> strong fibre texture to a typical shear texture with dominating B, B–, A1* and A2* components. As deformation proceeds marginal precipitation of β phase occurs. The precipitation process seems to be related to the shear magnitude, as the volume fraction of β phase increased linearly with shear. Furthermore, the precipitates produced by HPT form a typical texture for bcc metals with F and J1 components.}, type={Article}, title={Evolution of Microstructure and Crystallographic Texture in Severely Deformed FeCoNiAlTi Multicomponent Alloy}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/135538/AMM-2025-2-45-Chulist.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2025.153497}, keywords={Texture, HPT, synchrotron diffraction, multicomponent alloy}, }
