Abstract

The deformation structure of the alpha-2 and orthorhombic phase in two alloys of the Ti-Al-Nb system has been characterised by transmission electron microscopy after plastic deformation of about 2% in compression at room temperauture. The orthorhombic phase is shown to deform by all slip modes present in the alpha-2 phase. In addition, extensive “c” component slip is observed in the orthorhombic phase on slip planes that are not equivalent to those observed for “c”component slip in alpha-2. Dislocation dissociation on both basal and prismatic planes of dislocations without a c component is observed in both phases.
