In this study, a commercial magnesium alloy AZ31 (Mg-3Al-1Zn-0.3Mn) sheet through a short manufacturing process was found to be ductile and highly formable in bending. Despite possessing a strong basal texture, the short-processed sheet without any annealing can be bent at a small radius, only 0.2 times its thickness in the 90° bending test. Additionally, it could withstand direct deformation by repeated folding-flattening. The in-situ microstructural characterization reveals that extension twin bands with strain localization appear in the bending area. During subsequent flattening, these twin bands underwent detwinning, reducing local strain concentrations and enabling further bending deformation. Such outstanding bend formability originated from the significant 〈a〉-type dislocation loops slipping on the prismatic crystal planes within dynamic-recrystallized grains. These grains underwent a uniform refinement to several microns in the short manufacturing process and exhibited low residual strain. The active prismatic dislocation slip within refined grains was due to its much lower relative activation stress to basal slip (CRSSprism/ CRSSbasal of only ∼1.6) owing to the effective grain boundary hardening. Furthermore, the prismatic dislocation activity was further enhanced when bypassing Al-Mn nano-particles during motion, leaving debris and loops that facilitated easy multiplication. |
