Abstract: In terms of the coarse α-Al dendrites and refinement ‘poisoning' problems in hypoeutectic Al-Si alloys, an anti Si ‘poisoning' AlTiC-B master alloy has been successfully developed. This work studied the influence of the master alloy on the microstructure and mechanical properties of ZL114 aluminum alloy. The microstructure analysis and mechanical properties of ZL114 aluminum alloy were carried out by X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscope, Brinell hardness tester and universal testing machine. The results show that the α-Al grains of ZL114 alloy are significantly refined after adding 0.3wt%, 0.6wt% and 1.0wt% of AlTiC-B inoculation alloy. The average grain size drops from 1 224 μm to 186 μm, 122 μm, and 116 μm respectively;the room temperature yield strength increases from 250 MPa to 295 MPa, 340 MPa and 345 MPa, an increase of 18.0%, 36.0% and 38.0% respectively. The improvement of mechanical properties is mainly due to the refinement of α-Al dendrites and the homogenization distribution of eutectic Si after refinement.
