Abstract Polycrystalline specimens of rhombohedral camphor have been deformed in compression in the temperature range 283 to 343 K and the deformation processes and the development of microstructure followed by transmission polarized light microscopy. Processes of slip, kinking and twinning have been observed, and in particular, the mechanisms of dynamic recrystallization and its effect on the development of zones of heterogeneous deformation have been investigated. The points of similarity between the behaviour of camphor and metals and minerals of low symmetry are discussed.
