Magnesium barium master alloys Introduction:
Magnesium barium master alloys are semi-finished products and can be formed in different shapes. They are a pre-alloyed mixture of alloying elements. They are also known as modifiers, hardeners, or grain refiners based on their applications. They are added to a melt to achieve the desired result. They are used instead of pure metal because they are very economical and save energy and production time.
Magnesium barium master alloys Applications:
- Hardeners: Used for enhancing the physical and mechanical properties of metal alloys.
- Grain Refiners: Used for controlling the dispersion of individual crystals in metals to produce a finer and more uniform grain structure.
- Modifiers & Special Alloys: Typically used to increase strength, ductility, and machinability.
