Abstract

The microstructure and local chemistry in single crystal and polycrystalline stoichiometric NiAl, with and without boron additions, were investigated using transmission and analytical electron microscopy. Plate-like precipitates were present in the boron-doped NiAl. Since these precipitates were not observed in the boron-free material, they must be due to the formation of borides. After irradiation with 400kV electrons, fine scale changes in the image contrast and the appearance of diffuse scattering in the diffraction pattern indicate that a phase transformation has been induced by the electron beam.
