Abstract: The transformation process of mixture of elemental Al and Ti powders during mechanical alloying was investigated.Results show that Al-Ti amorphous phase and then TiAl intermetallic compound form.The TiAl intermetallic compound produced by mechanical alloying is nanocrystalline with disordered structure.

Key words: TiAl intermetallic, mechanical alloying
