Abstract
ABSTRACTTiB2 nano-lamellae, grown in-situ within a TiAl intermetallic melt, have been examined by high resolution electron microscopy. The use of the Stuttgart ARM enables Ti and B columns to be distinguished in the HREM images. Examination of the internal structure of the T1B2 platelets reveals extensive prismatic faulting on {1010}TiB2, {0110}TiB2 and {1100}TiB2 planes. Externally, the TiB2 platelets exhibit an orientational relationship {1010}TiB2 // {001}B2 and [0001]TiB2 // <010>B2 with interleaving platelets of B2-phase, with the predominating interface planes being {1010}TiB2 // {001}B2. The minor facets of the TiB2 platelets are [0001]TiB2 // <010>B2. {0110}TiB2 and {1100}TiB2, with the latter two facets showing no relationship with the interleaving B2-phase. No preferred orientation relationship of the TiB2 with the surrounding γ-TiAl and α2-Ti3Al phases is observed.
