    Abstract

    This paper reviews the latest research and development status of processing technologies for wrought magnesium alloys including extrusion, forging, (twin-roll) thin strip casting, rolling, stamping, and superplastic forming. Existing problems and the development trends of these processing technologies are analyzed and discussed. Up to the present, the R&D on the processing technologies of wrought magnesium alloys has made great global progress. Nevertheless there is a long way to achieve large-scale industrialization and application of wrought magnesium alloys.
