Research progress of Ti2AlNb alloy and feasibility analysis of its application in aero engines by PEI Huiping, LIU Dong, YAO Lipan, SHAO Tianmin, LIU Qiaomu, LIU Liangliang, CHEN Qianming

“…The analysis results indicate the feasibility of using Ti2AlNb alloy in aviation engines， with significant advantages in weight reduction： the alloy achieves a good balance of strength， toughness， and plasticity without obvious shortcomings； it has acceptable cold and hot processing performance， and can obtain engineering-sized parts through deformation， casting， and other methods； its combustion resistance is superior to traditional titanium alloys； when applied to static components such as casings， it can achieve a weight reduction of 35.3% compared to high-temperature alloys， and when applied to integral blade/disks and rotor components， it can achieve a weight reduction of 37.3% compared to nickel-based high-temperature alloys.…”
