Nano-Y2O3 reinforced Ti-47.7Al-7.1Nb-(V, Cr) alloy was fabricated by a powder metallurgy route using spark plasma sintering (SPS), and the influence of nano-Y2O3 contents on the microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated systematically. The results revealed that the ultimate tensile strength and elongation of the alloy were 570 ± 28 MPa and 1.7 ± 0.6% at 800 °C, 460 ± 23 MPa and 6.1 ± 0.4% at 900 °C with no nano-Y2O3, 662 ± 24 MPa and 5.5 ± 0.5% at 800 °C, and 466 ± 25 MPa and 16.5 ± 0.8% at 900 °C with 0.05 at% nano-Y2O3 addition, respectively. Due to the fine-grain strengthening and the second-phase strengthening, both tensile strength and elongation of the high-Nb TiAl alloy were enhanced with the addition of nano-Y2O3.

TiAl alloy with a composition of Ti-43Al-5V-4Nb-Y (at.%) was prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS). The TiAl powders were sintered between 650°C and 1300°C for 5 min under different loads. With the increasing of the temperature, the diffusion of the elements can be observed. Full compaction is achieved in a short period of time and the overall processing duration does not exceed 30 min. A fully lamellar structure was seen in the TiAl alloy after heat treatment. The microstructures of the samples were determined by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Their mechanical properties were evaluated by tensile tests performed at room temperature

Powder of Ti-46at%Al alloy was synthesized through mechanical activation (MA) and then sintered and concurrently consolidated in a short sintering time of 900 s by using spark plasma sintering (SPS) process. The XRD and SEM profiles show that the microstructures of TiAl alloys contained γ TiAl and small amount α-2 Ti3Al phase, whose amount can be controlled by the sintering temperature. The compacts retained the original fine-grained fully densified bodies by avoiding an excessively high sintering temperature. The alloys sintered at higher temperature with this process showed a coarser microstructure. So it is possible to produce dense nanostructured TiAl alloys by mechanically activated spark plasma sintering (MASPS) within a very short period of time.

This work deals with the consolidation of a TiAl alloy powder by spark plasma sintering (SPS). Pre-alloyed powder with a composition of Ti–48Al–2Cr–2Nb (at.%) was consolidated in a SPS furnace at temperatures between 1200[Formula: see text]C and 1325[Formula: see text]C and with a pressure of 50 MPa. The microstructures obtained after SPS depend on the sintering temperature. Tensile tests at room temperature were performed. The alloy SPSed at temperatures not less than 1250[Formula: see text]C exhibits good properties at room temperature.
