TiAl (Ti-48Al-2Cr-2Nb alloy) Deposition Test & Challenge
◇ Material (TiAl) Feature
- It has excellent mechanical properties (tensile strength 500 MPa at 800°C)at a high temperature (600°C or higher), oxidation resistance, and corrosion resistance.
- Due to its low density (about 4.0 g/㎤), it is possible to reduce the weight of parts.
- This material is used especially for power generation turbine blades, aviation LPT blades, and automotive turbocharger wheels.
◇ AM Research
We were able to identify crack-free microstructure through the Hot isostatic pressing (HIP) process. We will challenge complex shapes and huge sizes through the study of additive manufacturing processes.
