Transmission electron microscopy of rapidly solidified powders of Ni/sub 3/Al

Journal Article · · Metallography; (United States)

Rapidly solidified powders (<100 ..mu..m diameter) of stoichiometric Ni/sub 3/Al and Ni/sub 3/Al(B,Ti) were examined using transmission electron microscopy. The powders consisted of martensitic dendrites in a Ll/sub 2/ matrix that contained numerous dislocations. The stoichiometric Ni/sub 3/Al powder also contained martensitic lamellae between the dendrites. The martensite plates were internally twinned and enriched in aluminum, and probably formed by the transformation of ..beta..-NiAl.
