Abstract

Compression tests of the Mg-20Pb-1.6Al-0.4B alloy have been performed in the deformation temperature range of 240-420 °C and the strain rate range of 0.01-10 s−1. Flow behaviors were examined based on stress-strain curves and dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behaviors. The hot deformation apparent activation energy of the alloy is 147.5605 kJ/mol. The developed constitutive equation, which can be used to relate the peak stress to the absolute temperature and strain rate, was obtained. The correlation between the volume fraction of the DRX and strain at 240 °C and 0.01 s−1 was established. Processing maps of the Mg-20Pb-1.6Al-0.4B alloy at different strains are sensitive to strain. According to the processing maps and microstructures, the observed optimum parameters (temperature and strain rate) for hot working of the alloy were 300-420 °C and 0.01-0.06 s−1, respectively.
