Studies on recrystallization textures in 95% cold rolled copper and 97.5% cold rolled Cu - 4 to 16% Mn alloys indicate that the copper {112}<111>, S {123}<634> and brass {011}<211> components in the deformation textures are mainly responsible for the cube {001}<100>, rotated cube {310}<001> and Goss {110}<001> components in the recrystallization textures.
