The microstructures and textures in final products of the non-oriented silicon steel(0.003% C

0.80% Si

0. 28%Mn

0. 015%P

0. 003%S

0. 24% Als) with different cold bending process and stress-relief annealing at 750 °C for 2h are determined and analyzed. The results show that the preferred nucleation and preferred growth of new grains at surface in stresrelief annealing strongly reduce the detrimental {111} texture

particularly the {111}<112> texture component is not predominant and the beneficial Goss texture of ({110}<001>) is promoted. The proposed bending 20 times working process can improve both formability and magnetic properties of stress relief annealed sheet products.
