Abstract
The role of slip transfer processes across the heterophase interfaces in two-phase TiAl intermetallics has been studied. Polysynthetically twinned (PST) crystals of TiAl (PST-TiAl) have been used as model systems for individual grains in technologically relevant polycrystalline lamellar TiAl alloys. Compressive plastic loads have been applied for orientations of the lamellar interfaces parallel and perpendicular to the loading directions to produce hard mode slip activity in both the γ and the α2 phases. Transmission electron microscopy has been used to determine the active deformation modes in the constituent phases and to study details of the hard mode of the slip transfer across heterophase interfaces. The results are discussed with respect to the mechanical behavior of PST-TiAl.
