For this purpose, a processing map has been developed on the basis of the flow stress data obtained from compression tests. The stress-strain curves exhibited steady state behavior at strain rates lower than 0.01 s-1 and at temperatures higher than 350 oC and flow softening occurred at higher strain rates. The processing map exhibited two dynamic,recrystallization domains in the temperature and strain rate ranges: (1) 300–420 oC and 0.0003–,0.003 s-1, and (2) 420–500 oC and 0.003–1.0 s-1, the latter one being useful for commercial hot,working. Kinetic analysis yielded apparent activation energy values of 161 and 175 kJ/mole in,domains (1) and (2) respectively. These values are higher than that for self-diffusion in magnesium,suggesting that the large volume fraction of intermetallic particles CaMgSn present in the matrix,generates considerable back stress. The processing map reveals a wide regime of flow instability,which gets reduced with increase in temperature or decrease in strain rate.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.4028/www.scientific.net/MSF.638-642.3616} (DOI).
