Abstract

A process for the grain refinement of alloys containing at least 85 per cent of magnesium and at least 2 per cent of aluminium consists in immersing in the molten alloy a wax consisting of paraffin wax or ozokerite or other organic solid compound of carbon and either hydrogen or chlorine or both, which is waxy in appearance and feel, which melts or sublimes below 220 DEG C. and which is readily vaporized in molten magnesium. The wax may be mixed with a solid diluent such as fluorspar. Specifications 359,425 and 608,942 are referred to.
