This paper reviews the current progresses on the fabrication of TiAl-based composites produced by reaction annealing of elemental Ti and Al matrix composite foils. This technique includes deformation and reaction annealing of the multilayer Ti/Al metal matrix composite (MMC) sheet, which prevents traditionally direct deformation of brittle TiAl intermetallic, and TiAl-based composites sheets with good strength-ductility synergy have been produced. The research on microstructure evolution and forming mechanism of the TiAl-based composites sheet during reaction annealing has been summarized, with the focus on the reaction mechanism between Al-MMCs and Ti during reaction annealing, and the method to eliminate Kirkendall voids is proposed. A feasible proposal is provided to fabricate large scale TiAl-based composite sheets.
Key words: TiAl intermetallics; composite; sheet; reaction annealing; diffusion kinetics
