Abstract
This paper presents the results of the microstructure and crystallographic texture investigations of the Cu-Zn alloys system with different stacking fault energies (SFE) subjected to severe plastic deformation (SPD) by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) and subsequent flat rolling. It is shown that ECAP leads to the formation of an ultrafine-grained (UFG) structure. Further flat rolling is accompanied by a decrease in the size of structural elements and the formation of nanoscale twins, which are more likely to be detected in an alloy with a lower SFE. As the deformation degree increases, the main crystallographic textures components of the investigated alloys become Brass and Goss components.
