Excellent strength, stiffness, oxidation and creep resistance properties at a low density have elevated the use of TiAl alloys in the manufacture of critical aerospace components such as jet engines turbine blades. However, they are limited by poor ductility and fracture toughness, restricting their processing by conventional manufacturing methods. Spark plasma sintering (SPS) has been successful in rapidly processing the alloys however, it alone has not solved the ductility problem. Meanwhile, the design freedom in additive manufacturing processes such as laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) has promoted the development of lattice structures with low densities and high mechanical performance. By infilling a LPBF produced Nickel lattice with TiAl powder and processing by SPS, we create architectured composites with improved ductility, whilst retaining the strength and oxidation resistance properties at a low density. Thus, we present a method to alleviate TiAl alloy processing shortcomings in the manufacture of critical components.
