Abstract
The superplastic mechanical properties and microstructure evolution of the duplex Mg-9Li-1Al alloy were investigated. The tensile testing results show that, the elongation of the as-extruded Mg-9Li-1Al alloy reaches 510% at 573 K with a strain rate of 2×10-4 s-1. During the deformation process, the strips of α phase break into equiaxed structure. This phenomenon can be attributed to a particular dynamic recrystallization, which suggests that the β phase can recrystallize in the α phase due to the small misfit degree between α phase and β phase.
