摘要
The refinement of fully lamellar (FL) microstructure from similar to 400 mu m to similar to 40 mu m of as-cast Ti-48Al-3Nb-1Ta (at.%) alloy is successfully achieved by cyclic air-cooling heat treatment. The refinement mechanism is analyzed that the precipitation of Widmanstatten and Feathery-like structures originating with several orientations is promoted by Ta during air-cooling, which on next heat treatment cycle transforms to small lamellar colonies. After five cycles, the coarse FL microstructure is completely divided to small lamellar colonies. Room-temperature mechanical tests revealed that with the refinement, the ductility and strength are greatly improved compared with those of coarse FL microstructure.<bold> </bold>
