Abstract
Effective modification not by expensive nano-powders but by relatively large ones (up to several microns) and capable to dissolve when entering into the melt and become additional crystallization centers at its start point was shown. That provides a metal structure refinement and, consequently, increases the whole complex of mechanical properties. The optimal process parameters of refractory compounds disperse powders modification were proposed.
