Abstract The mechanical behaviour of the superplastic Zn-22% Al eutectoid is divisible into three distinct regions. Experiments show the deformation is quasi-uniform at intermediate strain rates in region II, but neck formation is important at low strain rates in region I. Extensive cavitation occurs in regions I and II, but fracture in region I is due to necking. The results provide strong evidence for a decrease in the true value of the strain rate sensitivity in region I.
