This work presents the synthesis and densification of TiAl-based alloys by means of Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS). The selected composition was Ti-48Al-2Cr-2Nb. Elemental powders as well as pre-alloyed powders were used in the process and the densification mechanism in both cases is explained. The main characteristics of the processes are presented and also the characterization of the obtained products.enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/restrictedAccessconference outputReactive sinteringSpark plasma sinteringSPSTitanium aluminidesMechanics of MaterialsCeramics and CompositesMaterials ChemistryMetals and AlloysCondensed Matter Physicshttp://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?scp=84902190295&partnerID=8YFLogxK
