Scripta Materialia, 51(2), 125- 129.https://hdl.handle.net/10289/1406The effect of iron on the grain refinement of high-purity Mg–3%Al and Mg–9%Al alloys has been investigated using anhydrous FeCl3 as an iron additive at 750 °C in carbon-free aluminium titanite crucibles. It was shown that grain refinement was readily achievable for both alloys. Fe- and Al-rich intermetallic particles were observed in many magnesium grains.enMagnesium alloysGrain refinementIronCarbonEffect of iron on grain refinement of high-purity Mg–Al alloysJournal Article10.1016/j.scriptamat.2004.03.039
