Abstract:
The present invention provides an aluminium alloy refiner. The aluminium alloy refiner is characterized by comprising 7 to 10 parts of Ti, 2 to 3 parts of B and the balance of Al by weight, for example, 8 parts of Ti, 3 parts of B and 89 parts of Al by weight. The aluminium alloy refiner is prepared by rapid solidification. After the refiner is added to A356.2 aluminium alloy, the grain size of the alloy is significantly reduced than that of the aluminium alloy treated by a conventional refiner. Moreover, the solubility of metals in liquid may be increased due to rapid solidification, such that the refiner is more easily absorbed by the aluminium alloy melt after being added to the aluminium alloy.

Abstract:
The invention provides a method of refining aluminum alloy, which is characterized in that aluminum-based nanometer quasicrystal alloy is used as an aluminum alloy refiner to refine the aluminum alloy; the aluminum-based nanometer quasicrystal alloy does not comprise Si, Fe or Cr; the aluminum-based nanometer quasicrystal alloy consists of (1) Al; (2) Mn and (3) La and/or Ce. The refiner selected in the invention is rare earth-containing alloy which has a strong refinement ability on the aluminum alloy, and is nanometer quasicrystal; after adding the rare earth-containing alloy to melt, the element distribution of the rare earth-containing alloy is more uniform than that of traditional alloy; and nanometer quasicrystal particles substantially increase the number of heterogeneous nucleation particles and improve the grain refinement effect of the aluminum alloy.
