摘要
Magnesium（Mg）-3% aluminum（Al）（in weight） alloy was modified by carbon（C） inoculation combining with strontium（Sr）.The effects of trace 0.1% iron（Fe） addition and operating sequence of carboninoculation and Fe addition on the grain size of Mg-3%Al alloy were studied.The results reveal that the Sr addition could effectively suppress grain-coarsening resulted from the inclusion of Fe in the carboninoculated Mg-Al alloy.Sr addition could contribute to the formation of the duplex-phase particles that Al-C-rich phases coated on Al-Fe or Al-C-Fe-rich phases,regardless of the Fe addition sequence.These duplex-phase particles should be the potent substrates for α-Mg grains.Consequently,Sr addition could effectively subsidize the inhibiting effect of Fe on grain refinement and the active nuclei were maintained.In other words,Sr plays a counter role in the poisoning effect of Fe on the microstructure of Mg-3%Al alloy.
