Abstract

The microstructure and phase composition of the protective Ti48Al2Ag coating produced on Timetal 834 by magnetron sputtering have been examined by scanning and analytical transmission electron microscopy (SEM, TEM). TEM investigations revealed that Ti48Al2Ag coating consists of two sublayers: outer columnar γ-TiAl and amorphous Ti5Al3O2. Energy-dispersive synchrotron radiation diffraction was applied for stress analysis. The results show that there are tensile residual stresses present within the Timetal 834 substrate and compressive residual stresses within the γ-TiAl sublayer.
