The flow behavior of Mg–4.2Y–1.5Sr‐0.6La(Ce)–0.5Zr biodegradable magnesium alloy was investigated using Gleeble‐1500D thermal simulation test machine at deforming temperature of 350 °C–500 °C, strain rates of 0.001 s‐1–1 s‐1 and the final strain of 60 %. The flow stress constitutive relationship and processing map was established. Meanwhile, the experimental results indicated that flow stress of the Mg–Y–Sr–La(Ce)–Zr alloy increase and then decrease with increase of strain, which is due to work hardening caused by dislocation blocking and softening effects caused by dynamic recrystallization respectively. According to the processing maps and dynamic recrystallization of the alloy, the optimum processing parameters of the alloy are determined with a temperature range of 450 °C–500 °C and strain rate range of 0.006 s‐1–0.009 s‐1.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
