Fine-grained fully lamellar (FGFL) structures of XD TiAl alloys (Ti-45 and 47Al-2Nb-2Mn+0.8vol.%TiB2) (at.%) were stabilized to varying degrees by different aging treatments. Specimens with and without aging were creep tested at 760°C and 207 MPa. It was found that during creep deformation, degradation of the lamellar structure involving coarsening within the colonies and spheroidization at colony boundaries occurred, forming fine globular structures at the colony boundaries and increasing the creep rate. Aging treatments stabilized the lamellar structure and retarded the coarsening and spheroidization processes during creep deformation. As a result, the aged specimens exhibited lower minimum creep rates and longer creep lives than the unaged specimens. A multiple step aging stabilized the lamellar structure to the greatest extent and suppressed other degradation processes during aging, resulting in the best creep resistance. These results demonstrate that the multiple step aging is the optimal aging condition for stabilizing FGFL XD TiAl alloys.

In this study texture and microstructure formation in high-Nb containing TiAl alloys during lab-scale compression experiments and “near conventional” forging on an industrial scale are investigated. The deformation temperatures range from 700 °C up to temperatures close to the α transus temperature (Tα = 1295 °C). Depending on the deformation conditions, the texture of the tetragonal γ-TiAl phase is formed by pure deformation components, components related to dynamic recrystallization, or transformation components. This changing corresponds with microstructural observations. The hexagonal phases α2-Ti3Al and α-Ti(Al) show a similar texture as it is known for Ti and Ti-base alloys after compressive deformation at elevated temperatures. In contrast to the γ texture, no significant change of the α/α2 texture was observed in the investigated temperature range. In the alloy with a composition of Ti-45Al-10Nb (in at.%) even deformation textures of ternary intermetallic phases, as the hexagonal ωo-Ti4Al3Nb and the cubic βo-TiAl(Nb) phase, respectively, were measured and analyzed.

TiAl alloys are being developed for future use as lightweight, high strength structural materials for the aerospace and automotive industries. The growth of titanium borides in-situ in a TiAl melt can lead to a variety of structures, such as TiB (Bf and B27 structures) and TiB2, depending on the Ti/Al ratio in the melt, and on the presence of further alloying additions [1,2]. The morphologies of the boride particles can be significantly altered if they grow coupled with other boride or intermetallic phases [2-4]. Since the morphology and distribution of the borides with the intermetallic matrix can significantly affect their effectiveness as creep reinforcements, the structures and growth mechanisms of these composites need to be quantified at the atomic scale.In a Ti-45.5at.%Al-1.6at.%Fe-l.lat.%V-0.7at.%B alloy know to contain TiB2 precipitates [2,3], the morphology of the boride particles have been investigated using HREM. The Stuttgart JEOL-ARM, operated at 1250kV using the side-entry pole-piece with 0.12nm point resolution, enables the distinction between individual boron and titanium columns in the titanium borides to be achieved for the first time.

The aim of this work is to join -TiAl intermetallics to Ni based superalloys by solid state diffusion bonding. The surface of the -TiAl alloys and Ni superalloys to be joined was prepared by magnetron sputtering with a few microns thick Ni/Al reactive multilayer thin films with nanometric modulation periods. Sound joining without cracks or pores is achieved along the central region of the bond, especially at 800°C and when a 14 nm period Ni/Al film is used as filler material. During the diffusion bonding experiments interdiffusion and reaction inside the Ni/Al multilayer thin film and between the interlayer film and the base materials is promoted with the formation of intermetallic phases. The final reaction product in the multilayer films is the B2-NiAl intermetallic phase. The interfacial diffusion layers between the base materials and the multilayer films should correspond to: 3-NiTiAl and 4-Ni2TiAl phases from the -TiAl side; Ni-rich aluminide and -phase from the Inconel side. These intermetallic phases are responsible for the hardness increase observed on the diffusion layers.
