Abstract
In this study, the microstructure and texture of twin roll cast (TRC) AZ31 (Mg-3wt.%Al-1wt.%Zn) alloy has been investigated. The structure of the as-cast TRC AZ31 was dendritic containing both columnar and equiaxed grains. Second phase particles, Al-Mn and Mg-Al-Zn, were distributed evenly in matrix. The macro-texture analysis shows that as-received TRC AZ31 had a basal texture. The micro-texture analysis by electron-back-scattered diffraction (EBSD) revealed that the large grains were mostly basal, however the smaller grains tended to have varying orientations.
