The composite of Ti matrix with TiB whisker reinforcement has been suc
cessfully fabricated. The content of TiB whisker in Ti matrix can reac
h about 30 vol. pet. Metallographic examination, morphology and micros
tructure of TiB whisker, interface structure between TiB whisker and T
i matrix were investigated using optical microscope, SEM, TEM and HREM
technology. The diameter distribution of TiB whisker is from 0.1 mu m
to 3.5 mu m and the aspect ratio of TiB whisker is from 10 to 20. The
cross-section of whisker is generally polygon. Because of good compat
ibility between TiB whisker and Ti matrix it is identified that there
is no obvious interaction of Ti matrix with TiB reinforcement and TiB
whisker reinforced Ti matrix composites have excellent elevated proper
ties.
