Titanium aluminide based alloy

Abstract

The invention concerns alloys made through the use of melting and powdered metallurgical techniques on the basis of titanium aluminides with an alloy composition of Ti-z Al-y Nb where 44.5 Atom %≦z≦47 Atom %, 44.5 Atom %≦z≦45.5 Atom %, and 5 Atom %≦y≦10 Atom % with possibly the addition of B and/or C at a content between 0.05 Atom % and 0.8 Atom %. Said alloy is characterized in that it contains a molybdenum (Mo) content ranging between 0.1 Atom % to 3.0 Atom %.
