Effect of Microstructure on the High-Cycle Fatigue Behavior of Ti(43-44)Al4Nb1Mo (TNM) Alloys

Abstract: To investigate the high-cycle fatigue (HCF) behavior of TNM alloys, three different microstructures were designed and obtained by different heat treatments. Staircase tests and fatigue tests in a finite life-region were performed to evaluate the fatigue properties. Then, the fracture surfaces were analyzed to study the fracture behavior of TNM alloys with different microstructures. Results showed that the TNM alloys with duplex microstructure possesses the highest fatigue strength and fatigue life, followed by… Show more

“…Asavela et al [49] also produced TiAl alloy with only 6 wt.% of Al (Ti6Al) via LPBF and obtained crackfree components. The literature reveals that a host of other researchers [14,27,47,51] uses TNM powder with Al composition (>43 wt %) could not obtain crack-free components, hence it is evident that the low Al contents and the high content of the b stabilizing elements used by Löber et al [47] enable the production of the crack-free TiAl-based components using the LPBF process. The resultant duplex microstructure obtained by Löber et al [47] is not the ideal microstructure for high-temperature applications [20,21].…”

“…Nevertheless, the addition of the b stabilizing elements not only enhances the possible production of crack-free TiAl-based alloys but also improved the ductility, damage tolerance at room temperature, and workability of the TiAl-based alloys at elevated temperatures [47,51]. However, the b stabilizing elements should be introduced cautiously in consideration of the resultant microstructural phases that might be present and the intended application of the alloy.…”

“…In the high cycle fatigue, it is well known that fatigue life is dependent on the microstructure and surface conditions as they affect damage accumulation, stress concentration, and crack initiation processes on the material’s surface (stage I) [ 32 , 33 ]. In this case, most of the material’s fatigue life is spent on the initiation and growth of microcracks and not on the propagation of the macrocrack.…”

“…The TNM alloys, nominal chemical composition Ti-(42-45)Al- (3)(4)(5)Nb-(0.1-2)Mo-(0.1-0.2)B (in at.% percent), are considered to be attractive options for producing light high-temperature structural materials due to their low density, high modulus of elasticity, high creep resistance and oxidation resistance at elevated temperatures [1,2]. At room temperature (RT), the alloys mainly consist of three ordered structural phases, i.e., α 2 phase (D0 19 structure), γ phase (L1 0 structure), and β 0 phase (B2 structure) [3].…”
