This work aims at verifying the influence of processing by high energy ball milling of titanium diboride (TiB2), to increase the effect of grain refining of high-purity aluminum. Various mills were carried out by varying the ratio of the initial TiB2 and aluminum charges. After obtaining the milling products, they were compressed in a cylindrical array as a uniaxial compressive stress of 100MPa, some were later sintered at 600°C for 30 minutes. The tablets were introduced in the metal bath of aluminum and castings at 800°C in thermal analysis cups. In metal baths, experiments with and without the presence of titanium as a solute, in addition to the variation of the content of TiB2 (0.15 and 0.30 wt%) can be observed. The results indicate a significant reduction in grain size, especially in the samples were nucleated with pellets which were sintered before being added to the bath.
