A cast AZ91 magnesium alloy was processed via backward extrusion (BE) method at different temperatures of 250, 350 and 450°C. Metallography investigations were conducted at three different regions of BE-processed cup (wall, bottom and flow channel). The main feature observed at the wall of the BE cup was mechanical twins, the frequency of which was decreased by increasing the process temperature. Flow localization in the form of shear banding occurred within the flow channel at all deformation temperatures. The bottom of the BE-processed cup at 250°C exhibited coarse initial grains along with continuous network of eutectic phase at the grain boundaries. However, increasing the process temperature to 350 and 450°C led to the fragmentation of the γ-Mg17Al12 network down to the fine particles, where a considerable grain refinement was also traced particularly at 450°C. Furthermore, shear punch testing method was employed to evaluate the room temperature mechanical properties of the backward extruded specimens. The results show that BE-processed material would benefit from higher strength compared to the as-received material; however, the ductility follows different trends depending on the deformation temperature.

An AZ31magneium alloy was processed through accumulative back extrusion (ABE) process at 280 °C up to six passes. Compressive deformation behavior of the processed materials was studied by employing uniaxial compression tests at room temperature. The results indicated that grains of 80 nm to 1 µm size were formed during accumulative back extrusion, where the mean grain size of the experimental material was reduced by applying successive ABE passes. A deformation texture characterizing with the basal plane mainly lie inclined to the deformation axis was developed. Compressive yield and maximum compressive strengths were measured to increase by applying successive extrusion passes, while the strain-to-fracture dropped. The evolution of mechanical properties was explained relying on the grain refinement effect as well as texture change. It was described that the share of different deformation mechanisms and developing of shearing regions near the grain boundaries may influence the deformation behavior of the ultrafine/nano grained AZ31 alloy.
