Abstract

Advanced deformation mechanisms and deformation technologies are considered as potential methods to develop high-performance Mg alloys. In this review, the activation conditions, microstructure characteristics of pyramidal dislocations and their contribution to the performance of Mg alloys were systematically discussed. We have also reviewed the effect of certain novel deformation mechanisms, defined as deformation graining and supra-nano-dual-phase/nano-dual-phase nanostructuring, on the properties of Mg alloys. Meanwhile, recent high-performance severe plastic deformed Mg alloys are discussed. The present review uses the insights gained to explore prospects and potential future high-performance Mg alloy considerations to enable further development in novel deformation modes and superior overall performance.
