The two-dimensional grain structure in polycrystalline foil of pure copper has been studied with EBSD and compared with model for polycrystal with random grain orientations. The texture withcrystallographic direction preferentially oriented perpendicular to foil surface has been observed. The Sigma 3, Sigma 9 and Sigma 33 grain boundaries (GBs) were more frequent in experimental dataset than in simulated random one. The {111} GB planes are the most frequently observed. Similar enrichment in {111} planes was obtained for simulated set of GBs if texture of the foil and GB planes orientation is taken into account. (C) 2017 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
