英文摘要	beta-solidifying gamma-TiAl alloys have attracted much attention for their higher specific strength and better mechanical properties at elevated temperature. They usually need some boron addition to refine the lamellar grain size, which is believed to improve their poor room temperature ductility. However, the boron addition may cause some side effects on mechanical properties for the formation of borides with unfavorable morphology and crystal structure, which is severely influenced by the alloy composition and cooling rate during casting. The components of gamma-TiAl applied usually have complex structure, such as different thicknesses, which leads to different cooling rates and therefore different microstructures and mechanical properties. To evaluate the influence of cooling rate on the microstructure and mechanical properties of gamma-TiAl investment casting, plate with step thicknesses was designed to achieve different cooling rates. Step plates of beta-solidifying boron-containing TiAl alloy were fabricated by centrifugal casting in Y2O3 facing coating ceramic moulds. It was found that boride mainly distributed on grain boundary, and its aspect ratio increased with increasing cooling rate, with its morphology varying from short, flat plate to long, curvy ribbon. The short plate and curvy ribbon borides were TiB with B27 and B structure, respectively. Both types of boride exhibit anisotropic growth characteristics (especially for B, structure), with the slowest growth rate along [100] and [010] for B27 structure and B, structure, respectively. This is attributed to the difficulty of atomic rearrangement along corresponding directions during solidification. The cooling rate increase caused the increase of yield strength but the decrease of room temperature ductility, the former results from the decreasing of grain size and lamellar spacing, while the latter results from the easy cracking nucleation and propagation of the long curvy boride, leaving smooth curvy surfaces on the fracture surface. Samples containing short flat plate boride showed better ductility, and no smooth curvy surface was observed.
