Abstract
This invention relates to TiAl based intermetallic compound alloy and process for producing; the object of this invention is to improve high temperature deformability. The alloy comprises basic components: Ti.sub.y AlCr.sub.x, wherein 1%.ltoreq.X.ltoreq.5%, 47.5%.ltoreq.Y.ltoreq.52%, and X+2Y.gtoreq.100%, and comprises a fine-grain structure with a .beta. phase precipitated on a grain boundary of equiaxed .gamma. grain having grain size of less than 30 .mu.m, and possessing a superplasticity such that the strain rate sensitivity factors (m value) is 0.40 or more and tensile elongation is 400% or more tested at 1200.degree. C. and a strain rate of 5.times.10.sup.-4 S.sup.-1.
