Experimental Study of Extruded Powder Metallurgy γ-TiAl Based Alloys

In the context of research of lighter and/or stronger high temperature materials in order to improve aeroengines, the present work shows an example of a powder metallurgy (PM) manufacturing route for TiAl alloys that could be used for low pressure turbine (LPT) blades processing. In this frame, two different alloys, Ti-47Al-1Fe-1Zr-1Mo-0.2Si (at. %) FZM and Ti- 43.5A1-4Nb-1Mo-0.1B (at.%) TNM-B1, were gas-atomized into powders, extruded, heat-treated and mechanically tested.
