摘要
Effects of calcium addition and electromagnetic stirring on the microstructure of AZ91 magnesium alloy and refinement mechanism were investigated. The results show that calcium addition ranging from 0.1wt% to 0.3 wt% does not lead to formation of any new phases but cause the refinement of as-cast microstructure. However, combined calcium alloying and electromagnetic stirring significantly decrease the grain size, change the morphologies of the beta-Mg17Al12 phases,and reduce their volume percentage. The minimum grain size of AZ91 alloy is obtained in the case of the addition of 0.2 wt%Ca with exciting voltage of 100 V The microstructural refinement is attributed to the increase of the degree of undercooling and nucleation temperature of primary alpha-Mg phases on the basis of DTA analysis results.
