Recrystallization aspects and factors affecting their roles in Mg alloys: A comprehensive review

Recrystallization stands as an essential process that influences the microstructure and properties of magnesium (Mg) alloys, yet its mechanisms remain complex and multifaceted. This review explores the key factors affecting the recrystallization behavior of Mg alloys, emphasizing how their unique structural characteristics impact the driving forces and dynamics of recrystallization. Unlike conventional alloys, Mg alloys exhibit distinctive recrystallization kinetics, which is significantly affected by deformation conditions, such as strain rate, temperature, and processing methods (e.g., rolling, forging, and extrusion). The process is also influenced by material characteristics, including initial grain size,…
