Abstract
A pure Ni sheet was heavily deformed up to an equivalent strain of 6.4 at room temperature and then annealed to obtain highly Cube textured material, which is a polycrystal subdivided by many low-angle grain boundaries. The highly Cube-oriented sheets were cold-rolled to various reductions up to 90%. It was found that large fraction of Cube oriented grains remained stable in cold-rolling although the orientation is theoretically unstable. The stability of Cube orientation was considered to be associated with the constraint by grain boundaries in the materials.
