Abstract: The nonequilibrium α2/γ interfacial structures have been studied using the conventional and high-resolution transmission electron microscope. The nonequilibrium γ/γ and α2/γ interfaces are important microstructure features of hot-forged Ti-45Al-8Nb2.5Mn-0.05B alloys. The characteristics of these nonequilibrium interfacial boundaries include the frequent interfacial ledges and the deviation from the conventional orientation relationship {111}γ.
