摘要
During the course of investigation of the phase equilibria in the Nb-Ti-Al system, decomposition of the ordered B2/beta(omicron) phase to an ordered omega-type product was observed in three Nb-(24-36)Ti-40Al (at.%) alloys following aging at 700 degrees C and on quenching from high-temperatures. Using transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques, this phase was determined as the hP18 variant of the P6(3)/mcm structure, with lattice parameters a(omicron) = 7.96 angstrom and c(omicron) = 5.57 angstrom, and an a(omicron) approximate to a(beta)root 6 and c(omicron) approximate to a(beta)root 3 relationship with the parent beta(omicron) phase. Ab initio calculations were carried out to estimate the energy of formation of various phases and to also establish the role of Nb in the stabilization of the hP18 phase. The results of the evolution and stability of this structure are presented and discussed. (C) 2009 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
