Sumario:In this study, hot rolling trials were conducted on a twin-roll cast and homogenized magnesium alloy Mg-6.8Y-2.5Zn (WZ73). The WZ73 contains long period stacking ordered (LPSO) structures due to the ratio of Y and Zn content. Microstructural and texture evolution depending on the different strain and strain rates were investigated, and the resulting mechanical properties were also considered. Therefore, samples were quenched in water directly after hot rolling. The results revealed that the rolling parameters significantly influence dynamic recrystallization (DRX), while continuous and twin-induced dynamic recrystallization are assumed to be the main DRX mechanisms. It was also found that high strains and strain rates are required to proceed the DRX. The resulting textures revealed that the non-basal slip of <<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi>a</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula>>-dislocations and <<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>c</mi><mo>+</mo><mi>a</mi></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>>-dislocations is activated during hot rolling. Hot rolling results in increased strength and ductility compared to the initial twin-roll cast and homogenized state.
