Warm-rolled AZ31 alloy sheets were annealed at different temperatures ranging from 150 to 450°C. Effects of annealing temperature on microstructure and properties of warm-rolled AZ31 alloy sheets, especially the formability, were investigated. The results revealed that the Lankford value (r-value) and strain-hardening exponent (n-value) first increased and then became relatively steady with the increase of annealing temperature. The Erichsen value (IE) first increased and then decreased with the increase of annealing temperature and the AZ31 alloy sheets exhibited the highest IE of 3.02 mm when annealing at 250°C, which can be mainly attributed to a larger elongation, a lower r-value and a higher n-value.

In this paper, effects of texture on tensile property of extruded AZ31 magnesium alloy are investigated by acoustic emission (AE). The results show that the extruded AZ31 magnesium alloy used in this research has the strong texture of and tensile anisotropy. The yield strength of TD-sample is about 80MPa, which is half of that of ED-sample. AE results show that the AE count of the TD-sample is higher than that of the ED-sample. These AE results suggest that there are more deformation twins in the TD-sample than in the ED-sample. It can be concluded that the deformation twinning can strongly influence the anisotropy, which is mainly due to the flow stress relief induced by twinning and the interaction of twins and dislocations during the strain hardening.

The deformation depends on twinning in Mg alloy, and twins will be the dominant recrystallization nucleation site. Tension twinning proceeds much more easily than compression twinning since its volume fraction is much higher than that of compression twins, which may have a promotive effect on the recrystallization to a certain degree. Based on the previous research on the static recrystallization at compression twins, the evolution of microstructure and texture in AZ31 magnesium alloy during its static recystallization at tension twins was further investigated; and the orientational characteristics of new grains formed at tension twins in the early stage of static recrystallization were analyzed by EBSD technique. The results showed that the strong basal texture was retained and weakened with no new texture component being detected during annealing. New grains were observed to nucleate preferentially at the intersections of tension twin variants or the intersection between tension twins and compression twins. Their orientations are relatively random and are strongly scattered from those of original tension twins or compression twins. A comparison of the recrystallization at tension twins and compression twins was further made.
