Abstract

The present study deals with the hot deformation behaviour of as-cast Mg alloys AM30 and AM50. The alloys have been investigated for mechanical and microstructural evolution in the temperature range 423–623 K and strain rate range of 10−3–10 s−1. A safe processing domain is identified for as-cast AM30 and AM50 alloys from the strain rate sensitivity map. The deformed microstructure of both AM30 and AM50 alloy reveals the occurrence of dynamic recovery and recrystallization for temperature above 523 K. Although the two alloys show similar behaviour in the hot deformation regime, they deviate at 623 K and low strain rate, where AM30 is fully recrystallized while AM50 attains necklace structure after deformation. This is likely due to the difference in the rate of dynamic recovery in the two alloys owing to the difference in Al concentration. Continuous dynamic recrystallization was the recrystallization mechanism active in the processing regime as deduced from the EBSD investigation.
