Research on Synthesizing Process under Ultrasound Coupling and Refining Performance of Al-Ti-C Grain Refiner

Article Preview

Abstract:

The microstructural characters and refining property of Al-Ti-C grain refinement alloy prepared by ultrasound coupling method were studied by analytical means such as SEM, and the reaction synthesis mechanism of Al-Ti-C grain refinement was discussed. Experimental results show that the Al-Ti-C alloy refiner using “thermite reduction method” under high-energy ultrasound was prepared experimentally. Its microstructure character is that master alloy has smaller size of TiC, its quantities are larger and are dispersed. Melt reaction is generally that the source of titanium releases Ti atoms under high temperature of ultrasonic. Ti atoms react with aluminum to generate TiAl3, and react with carbon to generate TiC.
