The formation of cube {l_brace}100{r_brace}<001> recrystallization texture was studied in warm plane-strain deformed aluminum. Recrystallization cube texture intensity increased from 4 to 200 times random, as the true strain was increased from 0.92 to 3.2. The increased cube was primarily due to larger numbers of recrystallized near cube grains, as cube grains had either no or very limited size advantage over grains of other orientations. The origin of cube nucleation was found in the partial stability of existing cube grains which produced thin bands of near-cube oriented deformed material and the lower stored energy of these cube bands. A simple geometrical model is proposed for the prediction of cube recrystallization texture in plane strain deformed f.c.c. metals.
