A bimodal grain distribution is generated in the Al-6.5Mg alloy deformed by high strain rate rolling (HSRR) at 320 °C, inwhich the fine grains with the average size of 2.1 μm and the coarse grains with the size of hundreds of microns containingultrafine sub-grains are developed. The deformed microstructures are detected by transmission electron microscopy, X-raydiffraction and electron backscattered diffraction. High strength and considerable ductility are achieved in the HSRRed alloyand the high strength is ascribed to solution strengthening, grain (sub-grain) strengthening and dislocation strengthening. The grain (sub-grain) strengthening is the dominant contributor (~ 146 ± 6 MPa) for yield strength. The generation of newfine grains is primarily observed along the deformation bands related to the high Mg solid content and the high strain rate at320 °C. The dynamic recrystallization related to the deformation bands is proposed to build the bimodal grain distributionfor achieving high strength and considerable ductility.
