Abstract Accumulative roll-bonding (ARB) was applied to AZ31 magnesium alloy at various rolling temperatures and cycles. The microstructures and mechanical properties of ARBed AZ31 alloys were investigated. The results show that the grain sizes decrease with decreasing of the rolling temperatures and increasing of ARB cycles. The grain refining is prominent until three cycles and the microstructures become more homogeneous with increasing of ARB cycles. The changes in tensile strength and ductility are more complicated as a result of the combined effects of the temperature and accumulated strain on grain size, texture and interface bonding. The best compromise between the strength and ductility is obtained after ARB at 350 for three cycles. The average ultimate tensile strength is 277 MPa and average tensile elongation is 20.6% which can be further improved after annealing.
