Rolling deformation behavior and microstructure as well as mechanical properties of rolled Al-5Fe-1.2Si-1Mg-0.6Cu-0.5Mn alloy prepared by electromagnetic stirring method were investigated.The Al-5Fe based alloy exhibits acceptable deformation behavior during rolling process with smaller pass-reduction

while with increasing in reduction

the deformation behavior becomes worse.The alloy shows desirable deformation behavior with pass-reduction of 2～3 mm at 430～460℃.The fragmented effects of Fe-rich phase in the rolled electromagnetic sheets are greatly superior to those of electromagnetic ones.At a fixed pass-reduction

fine and uniformly distributed Fe-rich phase can be observed in the rolled sheets

and the tensile strength and elongation of the sheets at room temperature can reach 314.5MPa and 7.2%

respectively

with pass-reduction of 2 mm at 460℃

showing desirable mechanical properties.
