Abstract

The substructure of cube-oriented Tough Pitch copper after shock loading to 433 kbar has been examined in the electron microscope. This is dominated by a well-defined subgrain structure with only small long-range misorientations. The nature and origin of the structure are discussed. The annealing response of the material has been followed by hardness measurements and is shown to be retarded compared with cold-rolled material. It has been shown by electron microscopy and texture determinations that conventional recrystallization is the dominant process during annealing.
