The results show that the structure is remarkably refined after treated by pulse magnetic field, and the width of graphite flakes is decreased while the length is increased after a slight decrease. The solidification temperature and eutectic temperature are increased and the undercooling degree of eutectic transformation is decreased by magnetic field.展开更多
