Abstract
The production, characteristics, and commercialization of monolithic and composite titanium aluminides are presented with emphasis on use in the demanding aerospace industry. The elevated temperature properties combined with a low density are attractive, but inherently low “forgiveness”, and environmental concerns, must be overcome before wide-spread use will occur.
