Experimental Investigation of Phase Equilibria in the Ti—Al—Zr System at 1000–1300 °C

Abstract

Four partial isothermal sections of the Ti—Al—Zr system up to 60 at. % Al and 30 at. % Zr were experimentally established between 1000–1300 °C. Six heat-treated alloys were analysed by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, electron probe microanalysis, conventional and high-energy X-ray diffraction, and differential thermal analysis. Phase equilibria were determined between B2-ordered (β0), βTi,Zr, αTi, Ti3Al, TiAl, and ZrAl2.
