Problems solved by technology

Al-5Ti-1B master alloy has been widely used as a refiner in the aluminum industry. This refiner has a good refinement effect, but it also has many defects: first, TiB 2 Particles are easy to aggregate and precipitate in the aluminum melt, so that the refining effect gradually declines over time (Limmaneevichitr C, Eidhed W. Mater Sci Eng A 2003; A349:197-206; Whitehead AJ, Danilak SA, Granger DA, Huglen R (Ed.), Light Metals, The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society, Warrendale, PA, 1997)
However, in the master alloys prepared by the above-mentioned processes, the nucleation particles TiAl 3 The size is about ten to tens of microns, and TiAl 3 It is mainly distributed on the aluminum substrate in the form of irregular blocks and needles
For acicular TiAl 3 As far as it is concerned, once it precipitates on the grain boundary, the matrix will be severely split, resulting in a sharp deterioration of the mechanical properties of the aluminum alloy.
In addition, TiAl 3 Belongs to the brittle phase, a large amount of massive TiAl 3 Distributed on the substrate, it will make the material brittle, which is also not conducive to the improvement of mechanical properties
