BLENDED ELEMENTAL POWDER METALLURGY APPROACH TO PRODUCE GAMMA TITANIUM ALUMINIDE AND COMPOSITE Ti-6Al-4V/TiAl/Ti-6Al-4V STRUCTURES

摘要

Cost effective method of production of both chunky and flat components from gamma titanium aluminide and Ti-6Al-4V/TiAl/Ti-6Al-4V composites for potential military and terrestrial applications using a Blended Elemental (BE) powder metallurgy (P/M) approach was developed. The microstructure of γ-TiAl sheets and Ti-6Al-4V/TiAl/Ti-6Al-4V monolithic composites produced by innovative ADMATAL-23 processes were investigated.
