摘 要：The Al-5Ti-0.2C-based grain refiners with different contents of rare earth（RE） were successfully prepared via powder metallurgy and vacuum casting. The microstructural evolution has been studied by X-ray diffraction（XRD）, differential scanning calorimetry（DSC）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM） and transmission electron microscopy（TEM）. The results showed that the RE addition resulted in the formation of Ti Al3/Ti2Al20 RE core-shell structured primary particles, and the size of Ti Al3 core decreased, while the thickness of Ti2Al20 RE increased with increase of RE contents. As compared to Al-5Ti-0.2C grain refiner, the grain refining efficiency was gradually improved with increase of RE contents, which was mainly attributed to the Ti Al3/Ti2Al20 RE core-shell structured primary particles and insoluble Ti C nuclei formed in α-Al matrix. The formation mechanism of core-shell structure was further investigated based on Ginstling-Brounstein model.
