Abstract

A 110μm thick micro-laminate sheet comprising 14 layers of TiAl/Ti3Al two phase compound and 15 layers of Ti was prepared by electron beam physical vapor deposition (EB-PVD), and its microstructures and mechanical properties were characterized. Results show that the hardness of interfacial region is about 7.029 GPa, higher than that of either component layer. After densification, room-temperature tensile strength and elongation are improved compared to single Ti-Al compound sample, reaching 656.89MPa and 2.92%, respectively. Its tensile curve presents a distinct jagged feature. High-temperature tensile strength exhibits an abnormal increase with temperature, exceeding 440 MPa at 1023 K. The presence of Ti layers will lead to cracks stagger along the inter-laminar interface or the crack deflection and the micro-bridge connection caused by Ti layers, due to the TiAl-Ti3Al/α-Ti micro-laminate displaying a fine characteristic of delayed fracture.
