The microstructures and phases of ternary TiAl+Nb alloys containing 50-60 at.-%Al, 0-21 at.-%Nb have been studied using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray powder diffraction. The phases present in the alloys and their distribution were found to be a sensitive function of composition. The phase relations between γ-TiAl and γ1 (a new ordered ternary intermetallic compound based on γ-TiAl) were determined. Essentially single γ phase was determined for alloys with relativety low Nb content (≤10 at.-%Nb). the γ1 phase was determined to exist in the composition range containing higher Nb contents (15-21 at.-%Nb). Between γ and γ1 phases, with intermediate Nb contents there is a transitional phase γ1 (a superstructure of γ-TiAl). As for the influence of Al concentration on the phase relations. the γ1 phase was inclined to form in the alloys with relatively high Al contents. The ordering transformation of γ, to γ1 is a continuous ordering process and the transition may be second order.
