Abstract

An investigation has been made on the effect of ternary additions of Mo and other elements on the room temperature tensile ductility and high temperature strength, including creep rupture strength in TiAl based alloys. Mo modified Ti-rich TiAl in an annealed condition exhibited higher tensile ductility at room temperature than other well-known Cr or Mn modified alloys, this resulting from the refinment of mean grain size in the duplex structure of lamellar (γ+α2) and single phase (γ) rather than the crystalline tetragonality of the γ phase. Moreover, creep strength in as cast Ti-rich TiAl is improved with the addition of Mo, and lowered with the addition of Mn. These results suggest that Mo modified Ti-rich TiAl can enhance, the potential of TiAl as a high temperature material more than other ternary modified TiAl.
