The effect of Al-3P and Al-5Ti-1B master alloys in Mg2Si/Al composite was investigated in this paper. The experimental results show that the Al-P or Al-Ti-B can refine and modify primary Mg2Si
and the refinement and modification efficiency of Al-P master alloy can be improved after the addition of Al-Ti-B. The morphologies of primary Mg2Si particulates change from dendritic to polygonal shape
