摘要
The mechanisms for grain refinement of magnesium alloys by superheating have remained ambiguous since 1931. A model has been proposed on the basis of the recent understanding of the grain refinement of both high purity and commercial purity Mg-Al alloys. The model explains most of the experimental observations about superheating. Analysis of the grain size data obtained from different Mg-Al alloys as a function of the growth restriction factor with and without superheating provides good support to the model.
