The hot deformation behavior of TC11 with an equiaxed α+β pre-form microstructure was investigated by hot compression tests in the temperature range 800°C–1090°C and strain rate range 1×10-310s-1. Several approaches have been used in this investigation, which include analysis of shapes of stress–strain curves, kinetic analysis and microstructure observation. The experimented results showed that, (1) In the β phase field, the alloy exhibits dynamic re-crystallization. The apparent activation energy in this domain is estimated to be 183kJ/ mol, which is close to that for self-diffusion in β. The re-crystallized grain size may be governed by competing of diffusion and dynamic re-crystallization rate at deforming conditions. (2) In the α+β phase field, the alloy exhibits super-plastic deformation behavior at 0.001-0.01s-1 and 980°C -850°C, and the apparent activation energy estimated in this domain is about 600 kJ/mol, which is much higher than that for self-diffusion in α-titanium due to β volume fraction is not constant over the test temperature range.

In the present work, the microstructure, texture, mechanical properties as well as hot deformation behavior of a Mg-2Zn-1Al-0.3Ca sheet manufactured by twin roll casting were investigated. The twin roll cast state reveals a dendritic microstructure with intermetallic compounds predominantly located in the interdendritic areas. The twin roll cast samples were annealed at 420 °C for 2 h followed by plane strain compression tests in order to study the hardening and softening behavior. Annealing treatment leads to the formation of a grain structure, consisting of equiaxed grains with an average diameter of approximately 19 µm. The twin roll cast state reveals a typical basal texture and the annealed state shows a weakened texture, by spreading basal poles along the transverse direction. The twin roll cast Mg-2Zn-1Al-0.3Ca alloy offers a good ultimate tensile strength of 240 MPa. The course of the flow curves indicate that dynamic recrystallization occurs during hot deformation. For the validity range from 250 °C to 450 °C as well as equivalent logarithmic strain rates from 0.01 s−1 to 10 s−1 calculated model coefficients are shown. The average activation energy for plastic flow of the twin roll cast and annealed Mg-2Zn-1Al-0.3Ca alloy amounts to 180.5 kJ/mol. The processing map reveals one domain with flow instability at temperatures above 370 °C and strain rates ranging from 3 s−1 to 10 s−1. Under these forming conditions, intergranular cracks arose and grew along the grain boundaries.

Under compressive testing at 400 °C and a strain rate range of 0.05–5 s−1, the hot deformation behavior and microstructure evolution of an as-cast (AC), as-extruded (with a bimodal grain structure (named as Ex-1) or a relatively uniform fine grain structure (Ex-2)) WE43 alloy have been investigated and compared. The results indicate that the AC sample exhibits the highest peak stress, while the Ex-2 sample has the lowest value. Within the AC material, fine grains were firstly formed along the pancake-like deformed grains (as a necklace structure). The necklace structure was also formed within the Ex-1 and Ex-2 materials at high strain rates of 0.5 and 5 s−1. However, a lamellar structure that the coarse elongated grains divided by parallel boundaries was formed within the Ex-1 material. A relatively more homogeneous fine grain structure is achieved after a true strain of 1.0 within the Ex-2 material at a low strain rate of 0.05 s−1. In addition, a discontinuous dynamic recrystallization mechanism by grain boundary bulging is found to occur. After a true strain of 1.2, a (0001) fiber texture, a typical rare earth (RE) texture, and a relatively random texture are formed within the AC, Ex-1, and Ex-2 WE43 alloy material, respectively.
