Problems solved by technology

Its main disadvantage is: high reaction temperature, resulting in TiB 2 The powder particles are coarse, and the required B in the raw material 4 C is more expensive to manufacture
[0009] In summary: the operation of carbothermal reduction method is not easy to control, and it is difficult to quantitatively analyze TiB 2 Content
TiB can be synthesized by mechanical alloying, self-propagating high temperature synthesis and controlled atmosphere isothermal heat treatment. 2 , but requires higher equipment

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing a grain refiner for magnesium and magnesium alloy. The chemical compositions of the refiner are as follows (by weight percent): 13.78-55.10% of titanium, 6.22-24.90% of boron and the balance of magnesium. The preparation method comprises the following steps: titanium powder, boron powder and magnesium powders are mixed in a drying status, compacted and dried and then are arranged in a corundum crucible; the crucible is landfilled with fire-resisting powder; an isothermal treatment is carried out at the temperature of 700 to 1000 DEG C in a box-type resistance furnace for 60 to 180 min to prepare the Mg-TiB2 grain refiner. The method is simple in preparation procedure, easy in controlling the content of TiB2 and adding the TiB2, and capable of prominently refining the grain of the magnesium and magnesium alloy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of metal materials, in particular to a method for preparing a grain refiner for magnesium and magnesium alloys. The prepared grain refiner can effectively refine the grains of magnesium and magnesium alloys. Background technique [0002] The industrial application of magnesium alloys began in the 1930s. At present, magnesium alloys have been widely used in the transportation industry and 3C electronic products and other fields, and the global magnesium consumption is growing rapidly at a rate of 20% per year, which is unprecedented in the application of modern engineering metal materials. Therefore, magnesium alloys are known as It is the green engineering material with the most development and application potential in the 21st century. However, magnesium alloy has a close-packed hexagonal crystal structure with few slip systems, which makes it difficult to plastically deform. In addition, the surface of magnesium a...
