The Synergistic Refinement and Modification of Al-7Si Alloys Caused by Trace Er and B

In this investigation, it was found that the co-addition of Er and B causes both the modification and refinement of the Al-7Si alloy. The B element mainly forms a small amount of the AlB2 phase within the alloy, which can be used as a nucleation site for grains during casting, so the addition of B c...
