Grain Initiation and Grain Refinement: An Overview
Metals, 2022 Heterogeneous nucleation and grain initiation are two different processes in early-stage solidification (ESS), although both are deterministic. Heterogeneous nucleation refers to the formation of a 2-dimensional (2D) nucleus (a crystal plane of the solid)

Effect of solutes on grain refinement
Progress in Materials Science, 2022 Abstract Grain refinement not only enhances the mechanical performance of as-cast metallic materials but also provides an effective mechanism for controlling cast defects, such as macro-segregation, porosity and coarse second phase particles. Therefore, understanding grain refinement of alloys with different solute additions is of both theoretical ...

Grain Refinement of Deoxidized Copper [PDF]
Metallurgical and Materials Transactions A, 2016 Abstract This study reports the current status of grain refinement of copper accompanied in particular by a critical appraisal of grain refinement of phosphorus-deoxidized, high residual P (DHP) copper microalloyed with 150 ppm Ag. Some deviations exist in terms of the growth restriction factor (Q) framework, on the basis of empirical ...

Nucleation and Grain Refinement
Materials Science Forum, 2010 The nucleation dynamics and grain refinement during solidification are reviewed. Control of the nucleation of phases is an essential step in the manufacture of optimized materials. Development of inoculants is still based on trial-and-error. Using aluminium as an example, it is shown that there is much room for significant improvements.
