- Confirms the long-debated mechanism of ultrasonic refinement by enhance heterogeneous nucleation (activation of inclusions). Led to follow up papers (Trans. Nonferr. Met. Soc. China, 2017, vol. 27, pp. 977−985; Acta Mater., 2017, vol. 141, pp. 142–153; Acta Mater., 2018, vol. 144, pp. 505–515) in which the mechanism was confirmed for other intermetallics such as Al3Zr and Al2Cu. This work was further enhanced by direct synchrotron in-situ observation of intermetallic formation of oxide particles in liquid aluminium after ultrasonic processing (Mater. Lett., 2018, 213: 303-305.)
