Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of titanium-aluminum alloy powder, in particular to a spherical titanium-aluminum alloy powder and its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] Due to its low density, titanium-aluminum alloy has high specific strength and specific elastic modulus, and it can still maintain high enough strength and rigidity at high temperatures. At the same time, it also has good creep and oxidation resistance, and has the potential to promote The potential for structural material change, titanium-aluminum alloy is considered to be a high-temperature structural material with great application potential. However, due to the low room temperature plasticity, poor toughness and difficulty in machining of titanium-aluminum alloy, it is still the main obstacle for mass production of titanium-aluminum alloy parts. [0003] At present, the preparation of titanium-aluminum alloy is mainly base...
