Adding 3%B2O3 in Mg-6Al alloys can refine the average grain size by about 5μm, with the average hardness increased by 13.3% (53.3-60.4 HV0.03); adding 6%B2O3 in Mg-6Al alloys can refine the average grain size by about 13μm, with the average hardness increased by 15.8% (53.3-61.73 HV0.03); adding 3% and 6%B2O3 into Mg-6RE alloys can refine the grain size by about 5 and 9μm, respectively, with the average hardness decreased to HV0.03 64.66 and HV0.03 57.86, respectively from HV0.03 88.57.
