Research status and prospects of melt refining and purification technology of magnesium alloys

Refining and purification is a significant way to obtain pure and high-quality magnesium alloy melts. This paper summarizes the flux refining methods and non-flux purification methods (blowing purification, filtration purification, electromagnetic purification and ultrasonic purification). It also i...
