Effect of Material and Process Atmosphere in the Preparation of Al-Ti-B Grain Refiner by SHS

Al-Ti-B master alloys are widely used in the aluminum industry as grain refiners for the control of the microstructure of the aluminum alloys. The SHS (self-propagating high-temperature synthesis) is an ex situ method that uses exothermic reactions to sustain the chemical reaction in a combustion wa...
