Abstract:
The microstructural evolution of Ti-45 center dot 9Al-8Nb and Ti-45 center dot 9Al-8Nb-0 center dot 2C (at-%) alloys fabricated by centrifugal investment casting is studied. It is found that both Ti-45 center dot 9Al-8Nb and Ti-45 center dot 9Al8Nb-0 center dot 2C are mainly composed of gamma phase and a small amount of alpha(2) phase, and the microstructure is mainly fully lamellar in C containing alloy but again the C free alloy is mainly nearly fully lamellar. Nb distributes homogeneously in the gamma and alpha(2) phases but is depleted in the interdendritic regions. The addition of C reduces the lamellar spacing of Ti-45 center dot 9Al-8Nb alloy. The mean interlamellar spacings between alpha(2) and alpha(2) of Ti-45 center dot 9Al-8Nb and Ti-45 center dot 9Al-8Nb-0 center dot 2C alloys are about 950 and 700 nm, and those between gamma and alpha(2) lamellae are about 320 and 220 nm respectively. Oil cooling from the a phase field after 1h treatment at 1360 degrees C leads to massive transformation to gamma(m) for both Ti-45 center dot 9Al-8Nb and Ti-45 center dot 9Al-8Nb-0 center dot 2C alloys. Subsequent aging in the azc phase field results in a phase precipitates within the gamma(m) phase, which leads to convoluted microstructures. However, the C addition retards the precipitation of alpha(2) phase.
