The role of rare earth addition on the microstructure and texture during recrystallization of cold rolled sheets is investigated by a comparative study of pure Mg, Mg-3Y and Mg1.5Nd sheets. In pure Mg, nucleation occurs mainly at shear bands which results in a texture weakening. The basal-type texture re-strengthens rapidly during grain growth of the pure Mg sheet. In contrast, in the Mg-RE alloys the weaker texture formed during early recrystallization strage is retained during further annealing due to retarded grain growth. Uni-axial tensile and Erichsen tests show that ductility and sheet formability are significantly improved by addition of rare earth elements.

Microstructural evolution during the annealing of cold rolled Mg, Mg-1.5Nd and Mg-3Y sheets has been examined. The experimental results show a significant difference in recrystallization kinetics and grain growth between pure Mg and Mg-RE alloy sheets. Pure Mg sheet shows rapid recrystallization and grain growth, whereas recrystallization is considerably retarded in the Mg-RE alloys. Although recrystallized grains which are triggered at shear bands in the cold rolled pure Mg sheet show a relatively weak texture with a basal pole split into the sheet rolling direction, rapid grain growth is accompanied by re-strengthening of the basal-type texture. In contrast, a weak texture appears in the early recrystallization stage in Mg-RE alloys and is retained during annealing due to retarded recrystallization and grain growth.

In this work the prominent influence of Particle Stimulated Nucleation (PSN) on the overall process of nucleation and subsequent grain growth is discussed and a global recrystallisation kinetics model is proposed. This model accounts for the effect of the most relevant industrial parameters, such as cold reduction and annealing temperature. Moreover, not only the role of the cementite content, which is function of the nominal carbon content, is included in the model, but also the morphology of the second phase particles. Experimental evidence is given to ascertain the accuracy of the theoretical predictions.

The influences of rare earth elements addition on the crystallographic texture and microstructural evolutions are examined during rolling and annealing of Mg-sheets. In case of Nd or Y additions, dynamic recrystallisation is suppressed such that the deformed microstructure is observed after hot rolling with relatively large strain per pass. Cold rolled binary Mg-Nd alloy sheet shows strong texture with splitting of the basal poles in the rolling direction, however, the texture intensity decreases significantly during the recrystallisation annealing. From the comparison of deep drawing behaviours between commercial ZE10 and AZ31 sheets, it is observed that the addition of the rare earth elements and accompanying texture changes result in the improved formability.
