Abstract

The omega phase in as-cast high-Nb-containing TiAl alloy exhibits particles with sizes on the nano- or microscale within the B2 matrix. Omega particles are transformed from the B2 phase by heterogeneous nucleation on the B2/γ boundaries or homogeneous nucleation within the B2 phase. After annealing at 900 °C, the omega particles disappear and transform into B2 phase. The transformation is rapidly initiated, but is difficult to complete.
