Abstract
Because of their low density, alloys of aluminum, magnesium, titanium, and intermetallic compounds such as titanium aluminide are particular ly attractive for aerospace applications. This article describes vario us methods of synthesizing and processing lightweight metals with enha nced physical properties.
