Reaction mechanism was investigated by means of microstructural analyses and thermodynamic calculations. The results show that it is feasible to prepare high Nb containing TiAl alloy with fine lamellar colonies by reactive hot pressing process. The reaction between Ti and Al powders is dominant in Ti-Al-Nb system. Nb powders dissolve into the Ti-Al matrix by diffusion. Pore nests are formed in situ after Nb powders diffusion. The hot pressing atmosphere is optimized by thermodynamic calculations. Vacuum or argon protective atmosphere should be adopted.展开更多

This high Nb containing TiAl based alloy was rolled with 50%, 60%, 65% reduction, respectively. Omega phase precipitated in B2 phase with an orientation relationship of {110}β//{1120}ω and <111>β//<0001>ω. Moreover, with the increase of de-formation reduction, rod-like structure which was formed inγ grain transformed from (α2+γ) lamellae structure intoα2 phase only. Addi-tionally, nanoinentation experiment revealed that the precipitation hardening ofω phase increased the hardness ofβ/B2 phase.展开更多
