A magnesium alloy material having high corrosion resistance is provided. The magnesium alloy material contains a magnesium alloy containing 7.3% to 16% by mass Al, wherein a region having an Al content of 0.8x % by mass or more and 1.2x % by mass or less occupies 50% by area or more, a region having an Al content of 1.4x % by mass or more occupies 17.5% by area or less, wherein x % by mass denotes the Al content of the entire magnesium alloy material, and there is substantially no region having an Al content of 4.2% by mass or less. The magnesium alloy material has small variations in Al concentration and includes a few regions having a very low Al content, thereby effectively preventing and retarding local corrosion. Thus, the magnesium alloy material has higher corrosion resistance than die-cast components having the same Al content.

The invention offers a magnesium alloy sheet having excellent warm plastic formability, a production method thereof, and a formed body produced by performing warm plastic forming on this sheet. The magnesium alloy sheet is produced by giving a predetermined strain to a rolled sheet RS that is not subjected to a heat treatment aiming at recrystallization. The sheet is not subjected to the foregoing heat treatment even after the giving of a strain. The strain is given through the process described below. A rolled sheet RS is heated in a heating furnace 10. The heated rolled sheet RS is passed between rollers 21 to give bending to the rolled sheet RS. The giving of a strain is performed such that the strain-given sheet has a half peak width of 0.20 deg or more and 0.59 deg or less in a (0004) diffraction peak in monochromatic X-ray diffraction. The alloy sheet exhibits high plastic deformability by forming continuous recrystallization during warm plastic forming through the use of the remaining strain.
