Abstract
Atom-probe field ion microscopy investigations of (alpha(2) + gamma) T i-47%Al-2%Cr-2%Nb (at%) doped with 0.15% B and 0.2% W, indicate that t he boron is mainly concentrated in boride precipitates. Several boride s including TiB2, TiB and a Cr-enriched M2B phase were detected. Initi al results give no appreciable evidence of boron segregation to gamma/ gamma or alpha(2)/gamma interfaces. The solubility of boron in the gam ma and alpha(2) matrix phases was found to be 0.011 +/- 0.006 at% B an d <0.003 at% B, respectively. Published by Elsevier Science Limited.
