In order to obtain fine grain microstructure in as-cast TiAl based alloys, three alloys of Ti-44.9Al, Ti-48Al and Ti-44.3Al-3.0Cr(at%) were heat treated at 1150℃(just slightly above the TiAl eutectoid temperature). The results show that there are three typical types of discontinuous coarsening transformations of the Ti3Al+TiAl lamellae in these Ti-Al based alloys and the ascast grain sizes of these TiAl alloys can be refined significantly by the discontinuous coarsening transformations. The best result of refining grains is achieved in Ti-44.3Al-3Cr alloy Moreover, the increase of aluminum content,addition of alloying element Cr can speed up the process of discontinuous coarsening greatly.
