Abstract:

Partial contents Introduction--insufficient oxidation resistance of gamma - titanium aluminides above 800 deg C. formation of a complex mixture of TiO2 and A12O3 instead of a thin, protective A12O3 layer gas TiO2 A12O3 TiO2 A12O3 A1 depl. metal detrimental effect of nitrogen containing atmospheres niobium additions improve oxidation resistance investigation of the initial stages of oxidation.
