The presence of Al 3 Zr precipitates promotes continuous dynamic recrystallization in Al-Zn-Mg alloys during hot extrusion, resulting in a fine-grained structure. The mechanism for this phenomenon was investigated by observing the change in microstructure under hot extrusion using high resolution EBSP. In the rear of the extrusion die mouth, grain boundary mobility is low since the flow stress is comparatively low and grain boundary migration is inhibited by Al 3 Zr particles. Thus, in order to reduce the deformation-induced high dislocation density, continuous dynamic recrystallization occurs, which does not involve long-range grain boundary migration, resulting in a finer-grained structure. The flow stress, and hence, the mobility of the grain boundary increase near the die mouth. This promotes long-range grain boundary migration, which reduces the dislocation density. Continuous dynamic recrystallization is not observed under these conditions. Since Al 3 Zr precipitates inhibit long-range grain boundary migration, increase of the Al 3 Zr precipitate content expands the region where continuous dynamic recrystallization occurs towards the die mouth, resulting in a finer-grained structure.
