Deskripsi

A new mechanism of dynamic phase transformations of &#945;<sub>2</sub> &#8596; &#947; in an isothermally forged &#947;-TiAl-based alloy that occur simultaneously during a short-term exposure at 1000 &#176;C is identified in this study. In the heating process, &#947; phase significantly decreases through a phase transformation of &#947; &#8594; &#945;<sub>2</sub>, while new &#947; lamellae are precipitated in the interior of equiaxed grains of &#945;<sub>2</sub> phase through a phase transformation of &#945;<sub>2</sub> &#8594; &#947;. The reasons for the presence of these two inverse phase transformations &#945;<sub>2</sub> &#8596; &#947; occurring simultaneously are discussed.
