Abstract
Intermetallic β-stabilized alloy of TiAl−Ti–44Al–5Nb–3Cr–1.5Zr (at. %) system, which was obtained by electron
beam melting was investigated. The cast alloy blanks were re-remelted by the method of induction crucibleless zone
melting. This processing method is one of the most attractive for improving the structure of the ingot, which, in
its turn, significantly improves the mechanical properties of the alloy. The paper describes the equipment for hightemperature
mechanical testing of the alloy. Such mechanical characteristics as yield strength, tensile strength, degree
of deformation during compression, as well as the modulus of elasticity and creep rate in the initial state and after
ICZM were determined. Deformation curves were plotted from these data. The test results showed that ICZM led to
a significant improvement of the high-temperature characteristics of Ti–44Al–5Nb–3Cr–1.5Zr alloy. Ref. 15, Tabl. 1,
