RE: The application of Cerium Mischmetal
In steel castings we add it to obtain finer grain size ,hence better mechanical properties.
RE: The application of Cerium Mischmetal
The rare earth elements also form intermetallic phases with Mg and Al, which serves to pin grain boundaries, and improve the high temperature creep properties (relatively speaking-- on the order of 150-250 C).
