Thermal stability of substructures in 6000 series aluminum alloys containing Mn and Zr elements was investigated using plane-strain compression test. In order to form thermally stabilized substructures, the deformation parameters should be selected so as to correlate with kinetic precipitation during the deformation. For substructures of the alloys containing Mn and Zr elements, the substructures were stable during heat treatment at 540°C when the alloys were deformed at a temperature above
