Tri-titanium aluminide alloys containing at least eighteen atom percent niobium

摘要

An improved titanium aluminide alloy contains from about 18 to 30 atomic percent aluminum, about 34 to 18 atomic percent niobium, with the balance titanium. In alloys of this invention a substatial portion of the microstructure, comprising at least about 50% of the volume fraction, is an orthorhombic phase.
