Evolution of microstructure and texture of ZK60 (Mg-5.5Zn-0.5Zr) was examined during deep drawing.
Two different ZK60 alloys of ingot casted (IC) and twin-roll casted (TRC) were compared.
Major deformation modes between the IC and TRC sheets were different during drawing process.
Tensile twinning and shear bands were frequently observed in IC cups.
Peak broadening along the TD and a peak split along the RD were more observed in TRC cups.
