Research on Grain Refinement Effect of Al-5Ti-C Alloy on Pure Aluminum and its Attenuation Mechanism

Article Preview

Abstract:

The texture feature and grain refinement effect of Al-5Ti-C alloy on pure aluminum were analyzed and its attenuation mechanism was discussed by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), optical microscopy (OM) and other experimental methods.The results show that: Al-5Ti-C alloy is composed of Al, TiAl3 and TiC. Al-5Ti-C alloy has a good grain refining capacity for commercially pure aluminum. During the heat preservation process, due to precipitation of titanium compound in the aluminum melt, refinement effect of Al-Ti-C alloy is declined.
