Abstract

The invention relates to a method for compositely refining a solidification structure of a magnesium alloy by combination of current and Zr. A Zr refiner is added in a smelting process of the magnesium alloy and current is introduced in a solidification process of the magnesium alloy till the magnesium alloy is solidified completely. The method provided by the invention comprises the specific steps of: (1) placing an electrode in a cast, and connecting the electrode with a power supply and pre-adjusting current parameters; (2) smelting the magnesium alloy by regular smelting, refining, drossing and peeling steps; (3) adding the Zr refiner till temperature of a mother solution of the magnesium alloy is adjusted to a predetermined temperature, and agitating and standing; and (4) pouring the mother solution of the magnesium alloy to the cast and turning on a power supply switch to introduce current from the beginning of pouring to complete solidication of the cast so as to obtain the refined solidification structure of the magnesium alloy. The method provided by the invention adopts a composite method which combines physical refining with chemical refining, is able to obtain the structure of the magnesium alloy with more smaller grains, more uniform structure and remarkably reduced deficiency, improves the mechanical property of the magnesium alloy, and is suitable for solidification and refining of the magnesium alloy.
