Abstract
Uniaxial tensile test was employed to evaluate the warm deformation properties of hot-rolled AZ31 Mg alloy at a temperature range of 50-200°C and a strain rate range of 1.4 Ã 10â3 sâ1-1.4 Ã 10â1 sâ1. The dynamic recrystallization (DRX) and twinning during the warm deformation were observed by optical microscopy (OM) and transmission electronic microscopy (TEM). It is shown that twinning characterized by a compound mode with differently oriented twins intersecting each other is the dominant deformation mechanism at low temperatures and initial deformation stage. The distortion energy accumulated by twinning is the reason for the occurrence of DRX.
