- Abstract:
- During the preparation of metal objects, the technological processes like casting, plastic deformation and heat treatments evolve characteristic crystallographic fingerprint called texture, in the microstructure of metals. This texture remains unchanged for centuries. So, the characterization of texture is a conclusive explanation regarding the former process or processes. A new, non-invasive texture measurement method was developed for centreless X-ray diffractometers. By using this method, the most widespread texture visualization the pol figures can be realized. The paper introduces the advantage and the limitation of the new method especially for archaeological application. Keywords: non-invasive, non-destructive crystallographic texture, X-ray diffraction
