Grain refinement and strength enhancement in Mg wrought alloys: A review

open access: yesJournal of Magnesium and Alloys, 2023
Low absolute strength becomes one major obstacle for the wider applications of low/no rare-earth (RE) containing Mg alloys. This review firstly demonstrates the importance of grain refinement in improving strength of Mg alloys by comprehensively ...

Impeding Nucleation for More Significant Grain Refinement [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
AbstractGrain refinement has been a topic of extensive research due to its scientific and technological importance as a common industrial practice for over seven decades. The traditional approach to grain refinement has been to reduce nucleation undercooling by the addition of potent nucleant particles.

Determination of the degree of grain refinement in irradiated U-Mo fuels [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon, 2018
A simple, repeatable method for determination of the degree of grain refinement in irradiated Uranium-Molybdenum fuels has been developed. This method involves mechanical potting and polishing of samples along with examination using a scanning electron ...

The effect of the austenite grain refinement on the tensile and impact properties of cast Hadfield steel [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials Research, 2018
This paper studied the effect of the austenite grain refinement on the tensile and impact properties of a cast Hadfield steel (12 % Mn, 1.2 %C and 0.65 % Si). The austenite grain refinement was obtained by hafnium inoculation.

Grain refinement by rapid cyclic heating and its effect on cleavage fracture behaviour of an S690 high strength steel

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023
The simultaneous improvement of strength and toughness with grain refinement is widely known. However, the literature lacks studies on the grain refinement effect on cleavage fracture toughness in multiphase steels containing detrimental brittle ...

Grain refinement in a AlZnMgCuTi alloy by intensive melt shearing: A multi-step nucleation mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This is a post-print version of the article. Copyright @ 2010 Elsevier B.V.Direct chill (DC) cast ingots of wrought Al alloys conventionally require the deliberate addition of a grain refiner to provide a uniform as-cast microstructure for the ...

Effect of Al addition on microstructure of AZ91D [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Casting is a net shape or near net shape forming process so work-hardening will not be applicable for improving properties of magnesium cast alloys.

Dislocation exhaustion and ultra-hardening of nanograined metals by phase transformation at grain boundaries

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Strengthening of metals by grain refinement is limited by the inverse Hall-Petch effect. Here, the authors show nanograined metals can be strengthened by exhausting lattice dislocations via triggering of phase transformation at grain boundaries, instead ...
