Abstract

The alloying effect of vanadium upon σ-phase titanium trialuminide has been investigated using materials whose compositions were of the type Al3(Ti,V). Six types of ternary aluminum-titanium-vanadium alloys, ranging from Al3Ti to Al3V at 5 atomic % intervals, have been prepared by arc melting. All the materials showed the D022 tetragonal structure, suggesting vanadium atoms substitute titanium atoms. The 0.2% proof stress increased with increasing vanadium content up to about 10 atomic %, and then decreased toward that of Al3V both at room temperature and at elevated temperatures. Such behavior can be interpreted as substitutional solid solution strengthening.
