A yield phenomenon was firstly reported in an extruded Mg-6.8Y-2.5Cu alloy and the corresponding microstructure was also investigated in this work. The cast alloy is mainly composed of a-Mg, 18R long period stacking order (LPSO) phase, eutectic phase (Mg20Cu4Y1), and Mg2Cu phase. The 18R LPSO phase at the dendritic grain boundary transforms into the 14H LPSO phase in the grain interior during ho-mogenization. After extrusion, the grain size of the homogenized alloy is remarkably refined to-3.69 mm and the second phase is significantly broken and distributed in the extrusion direction. Tensile testing curves of the extrude alloy at room temperature indicate that the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength increase while the elongation of the alloy decreases with increasing strain rate. Interestingly, a yield plateau forms and gradually decreases with increasing strain rate. The yield phenomenon is related to the dislocation multiplication and the interaction between the movable dislocations and solute atoms.
