Mechanisms of modification of magnesium– manganese alloys

open access: yesЛитьë и металлургия, 2023
It is shown that the main modifying phases cannot serve as centers of crystallization of α‑phase microcrystals during solidification of magnesium‑manganese alloys.The superheating modification of these alloys is an adsorption‑nanostructural process.
