DSC results were used to calculate the activation energy and nucleation work of primaryα(Al) phase. The results show that the values of activation energy and nucleation work are decreased and the nucleation frequency is increased with the additions of Ce and Sr to the alloys. Moreover, the grain size of dendriticα(Al) phase is well refined, and the nucleation temperatures of primaryα(Al) dendrites are decreased with the additions of Ce and Sr. The effects of elements Ce and Sr additions on kinetic nucleation of primary α(Al) phases were also discussed in hypoeutectic Al-7%Si-Mg cast alloy.展开更多
