Abstract
Single crystals of technical purity Magnesium (99.8 wt.%) of initial orientations [ ] 2 1 10 and [ ] 2 2 11 were subjected to HPT deformation at room temperature up to strains of 10. The microstructural evolution has been analyzed by X-ray microtexture investigations and by in-situ stress-strain measurements. The results can be described in terms of shear arising from HPT deformation and - with higher strains - in terms of recrystallization. In crystals with hard orientation[ ] 2 2 11 , these features occur at smaller strains than in crystals with soft orientation [ ] 2 1 10 , i.e. with higher symmetry. In general, the observed textures and strength variations are much stronger than those reported for fcc HPT deformed metals.
