The paper is devoted to grain-refinement of the medium-aluminium zinc based alloys (MAl-Zn). The system examined was sand cast Zn10
wt. %. Al binary alloy (Zn-10Al) doped with commercial Al-3 wt. % Ti – 0.15 wt. % C grain refiner (Al-3Ti-0.15C GR). Basing on the
measured attenuation coefficient of ultrasonic wave it was stated that together with significantly increased structure fineness damping
decreases only by about 10 – 20%. The following examinations should establish the influence of the mentioned grain-refinement on
strength and ductility of MAl-Zn cast alloys.
