摘要: In this paper, two types of Zn-Al-Ti-C master alloy with different Ti/C ratios were produced throug a two-step method, characterized by XRD and SEM, their refinement behaviors mechanism in Zn-50Al studied. Both the alloys remarkably reduced size α-Al grains, impeded dendritic growth promote equiaxed grains Zn-50wt.%Al alloy. The containing both TiC dditional Ti Zn-Al matrix was found to have higher ability than that containg only TiC. effect greatly enhanced as solidification temperature melt decreases. particles observed be located at center act nucleating substrate for α-Al. decrease presence additional atoms cause supercooling, which further elevate rate on grains.
