A study has been made of annealing behavior of a boron-added alumina dispersion-strengthened copper (ADSC) strip, Glidcop Al-25, and specimens fabricated by rolling of the strip by 25 to 28 pct under various conditions. All the specimens, including the starting strip, had similar microstructures consisting of microbands aligned parallel to the rolling direction. The textures of the specimens were characterized by  fiber, which runs from the copper orientation {112}͗111͘ over the S orientation {123}͗634͘ to the brass orientation {110}͗112͘ in the Euler orientation space, with the intensities in the S and the brass components being higher than the copper component and with the S components having higher intensities than the brass component in the surface layers. When annealed at 1123 K for 1 hour, the center region of the starting strip and cold-rolled specimens underwent recrystallization, with recrystallization texture being approximated by {112}͗312͘, whereas the specimens rolled at 813 K did not undergo recrystallization through the thickness. These results have been discussed based on detailed microstructures and microtextures.
