Abstract:
The microstructure formation during annealing of cryogenically deformed copper was studied. It was shown that the primary recrystallization was completed already after a one-hour annealing at 150$^\circ$C. It was found out that grains with the crystallographic orientation close to $\{112\}$$\langle$111$\rangle$, $\{4;4;11\}$$\langle$11;11;8$\rangle$, $\{110\}$$\langle$122$\rangle$, and $\{130\}$$\langle$132$\rangle$ had an advantage in the growth, which, apparently, was associated with a relatively low energy stored during the deformation.
