Titanium aluminide, cast made therefrom and method of making the same

   
   

TiAl alloy includes 46 to 50 at % of Al, 5 at % or less of combination of Mo, V and Si, provided that Si content is 0.7 at % or less, and Mo content satisfies an equation of -;0.3x +17.5 at % or less where x represents Al (at %), and the remainder being Ti and inevitable impurities. Mo may be replaced by Fe or combination of Mo and Fe. TiAl alloy is heated to a melt, poured into a mold, and cooled at a rate of 150 to 250 C./min within a temperature range of 1500 to 1100 C. The resulting product can be used as cast. If desired, however, heat treatment such as HIP or homogenization may be performed within a temperature range of 1100 to 800 C. After the heat treatment, the melt is cooled at a rate of 100 C./min or more until room temperature.
