Abstract

The invention provides a magnesium and magnesium alloy composite grain refiner and a preparation method thereof. The chemical composition of the refiner is (percentage by weight): 15-37.5% aluminum, 5-12.5% ​​carbon, 5-20% cerium, and the balance is magnesium. The preparation method of the refiner is as follows: dry-mix aluminum powder, carbon powder and magnesium powder, briquette and dry them, place them in a corundum crucible and fill them with refractory powder, and heat them in a box-type resistance furnace at 700-900°C Mg-Al4C3 is obtained by isothermal treatment for 30-120 minutes, and then remelted with magnesium ingot and Mg-25%Ce master alloy to finally prepare Mg-Al4C3-Ce composite grain refiner. The method is easy to operate and easy to industrialized production, and the prepared compound refiner is easy to control the content and easy to add, and can obviously refine the crystal grains of magnesium and magnesium alloys.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to metal materials, in particular to a magnesium and magnesium alloy composite grain refiner and a preparation method thereof. The prepared composite grain refiner can effectively refine magnesium and magnesium alloy alloy crystal grains. Background technique [0002] The industrial application of magnesium alloys began in the 1930s. At present, magnesium alloys have been widely used in the transportation industry and 3C electronic products, and the global magnesium consumption is growing rapidly at a rate of 20% per year. This is an important aspect of modern engineering metal materials. It is unprecedented in application, therefore, magnesium alloy is known as the green engineering material with the most development and application potential in the 21st century. However, magnesium alloy has a close-packed hexagonal crystal structure with few slip systems, which makes it difficult to plastically deform. In addition, the surface ...
