Abstract:
Control of microstructure features that affect the Al-Ti-C master alloys grain refining efficiency is leading to improve the aluminum grain refinement. This study has been done to find the solute effecttheory to produce new Al-Ti-C master alloys to get more possibility to control these features. Theproduced master alloys were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD); also, the influence of them on pure aluminum was studied. Produced Al-6Ti-1C master alloy contained Ti and TiC particles in the aluminum matrix andAl-4Ti-1C contained TiC particles in the aluminum matrix. As the result, the produced Al-6Ti-1C master alloy is a more efficient grain refiner for pure aluminum as compared to the Al-4Ti-1C. This confirms the influence of Ti particles for grain refinement. The results showed that Al-6Ti-1C masteralloy had maximum grain refining performance with 2 minutes holding time , at 983 oK temperature , and 1% wt master alloy addition. Finally, a new Al-Ti-C master alloy with excellent refinement has been prepared successfully
