Mechanisms of dynamic recrystallization operating at severe plastic deformation in a wide temperature range are reviewed for aluminum alloys. The main mechanism of grain refinement in all aluminum alloys is continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX). Temperature, deformation process and distribution of secondary phases strongly affect the CDRX mechanism.

After grain refinement by the thermomechanical process, the ratio of annealed twin decreases from 53.5% for coarse CoCrNi MEA to 22% for refined grain one, and the ratio reduces by more than half. The decrease of twin ratio will undoubtedly deteriorate the corrosion resistance of surface passive films.
