Structure evolution taking place in pure polycrystalline copper was studied in multiple compressions at room temperature. Rectangular samples were compressed with consequent change in the loading direction from pass to pass. The deformation behaviour at high strains of above 2 shows an apparent steady-state flow following a rapid rise in the flow stress at an early stage of deformation. The structural changes are characterized by the evolution of many mutually crossing subboundaries at low to moderate strains, finally followed by the development of very fine grains with medium- to large-angle boundaries at large strains. These new grains are concluded to be evolved by a kind of continuous reaction, that is continuous dynamic recrystallization (DRX). The grains developed under continuous DRX are much finer than expected from the extrapolation of discontinuous DRX data for hot deformation. An average grain size of about 0.2 mum evolved at room temperature is roughly similar to that for subgrains developed at preceding strains.
