A high strength magnesium alloy is subjected to equal channel angular extrusion imparting a strong shear texture. After annealing, the ductility epsilon(f) similar to 26% is improved by a factor of two in comparison to conventional processing methods. The enhancement is discussed in terms of grain size, texture, aging and failure stress. (c) 2006 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
