The microstructural and textural evolution of the annealed Mg-4.26 wt% Li-1.05 wt% Al-0.52 wt% Y (denoted as Mg-4Li-1Al-0.5Y) alloy at 200 degrees C and strain rate of 0.1 s(-1) was investigated via ex-situ electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). Microstructural analysis revealed that the axial ratio (c/a) of the annealed Mg-4Li-1Al-0.5Y alloy decreased to 1.605, which reduced the critical shear stress (CRSS) of non-basal slip and promoted the activation of pyramidal slip in the early stage of deformation (epsilon = 0.02). In addition, a weak {11 (2) over bar0} prismatic texture was formed in the investigated alloy, and the hot compression curve exhibited a significant work-hardening characteristic with a yield strength of 92 MPa. As the strain increased, the texture strength gradually decreased, and the number of low-angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) increased. In addition, the area fraction of {10 (1) over bar2} extension twins decreased, while no {10 (1) over bar1} compression twins or {10 (1) over bar1}-{10 (1) over bar2} double twins were observed. Moreover, the high dislocation activities indicated that the decrease in the axial ratio (c/a) promoted the non-basal slip more actively and inhibited the activity of the twins to some extent, which resulted in significant work hardening of the Mg-4Li-1Al-0.5Y alloy during the compression process.
