Abstract：

Grain　refinement　is　important　for　improving　the　microstructure　and　mechanical　properties　of　magnesium　alloys.　Carbon　inoculation　is　an　effective　method　of　grain　refinement　process　for　magnesium　alloys　containing　aluminum.　In　this　paper,　the　C2Cl6　and　graphite　powder　were　used　as　the　potential　grain　refiners　for　AM60　and　AZ91　alloys,　respectively.　The　results　show　that　the　microstructure　and　mechanical　properties　of　these　Mg-Al　magnesium　alloys　have　been　improved　with　these　grain　refiners.　The　mechanism　and　thermodynamics　analyses　of　grain　refinement　with　carbon　inoculation　in　Mg-Al　magnesium　alloy　have　been　discussed.　©　(2014)　Trans　Tech　Publications,　Switzerland.
