Abstract: The grain size of magnesium alloys is effectively refined and made smaller by the addition of a small amount of titanium. The effect of the reduction of grain size is often an improvement in the strength and processability of a cast magnesium alloy. Often less than about 0.1% by weight of titanium need be used. It may be preferred to incorporate the titanium with another alloying constituent (such as aluminum) for addition to a melt of a magnesium base alloy.
