摘要
Transmission electron microscopy(TEM)and atom probe tomography(APT)techniques were used to investigate the nanoscale orderedα_(2)(Ti_(3)Al)precipitates in Ti–Al binary alloys.Ti–6Al and Ti–8Al binary alloys were solution treated and aged to obtain Widmanstatten microstructure and promoteα_(2)precipitates.The TEM results displayed strong short-range ordering ofα_(2)precipitates in Ti–8Al alloy,while no evidence of the superlattice reflections ofα_(2)in Ti–6Al alloy.The results acquired from APT showed theα_(2)clusters and atoms distribution at the interface between the matrix andα_(2)precipitates.The size and morphology ofα_(2)particles in Ti–8Al alloy,respectively,obtained by TEM and APT are closely consistent.Meanwhile,the APT results displayed tiny size clusters in Ti–6Al alloy,which supposed to give evidence of the initial ordering process ofα_(2)precipitates in the absence of correlative results from TEM.
