Problems solved by technology

However, the developed preparation method still has some disadvantages, such as when potassium fluorotitanate is used to introduce Ti element, a large amount of fluoride gas will be generated during the preparation process to pollute the environment, corrode equipment, and easily form fluorine salt inclusions to affect the fineness of the refiner. Metallurgical quality; in addition, the preparation temperature is relatively high (about 1250°C), and it needs to be smelted in an induction furnace, which causes serious burning loss and high energy consumption
When Zhao Hongliang et al. used titanium sponge as the raw material to provide Ti element and prepared Al-Ti-C-RE refiner by resistance furnace, the preparation temperature was still high (about 950°C), the energy consumption was still large, and the preparation cost was high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of refiners, and relates to a low-cost and high-efficiency Al-Ti-C-Ce refiner and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Adding a grain refiner can not only refine the as-cast grains and dendrite structure, but also reduce porosity, reduce hot cracking tendency, reduce casting defects, and improve subsequent processing performance. In recent years, with the research on aluminum alloy refiners, Al-Ti-C grain refiners have been developed. The TiC particles in the Al-Ti-C grain refiner have been widely concerned because of their small size, difficulty in agglomeration, uniform distribution, and good coherence with Al. However, due to the poor wettability of C in Al, the preparation is very difficult. The Al-Ti-C grain refiner is prepared by strong stirring or high-temperature reaction, and the preparation cost is high, which limits the Al-Ti-C grain refinement. Extensive application of ch...
