In order to exploit the full potential of these alloying elements, detailed studies of their influence on the phase transformations and the resulting microstructural evolution during processing and heat treatments are a necessity. This work presents a fundamental investigation of the alloying effect of Si in the composition range up to 0.65 at.% on a β-solidifying TiAl alloy with the nominal composition of Ti-43.5Al-4Nb-1Mo-0.1B (in at.%). After casting and a subsequent heat treatment at 1200 °C, Si increases the amount of γ phase at the expense of the α2-Ti3Al phase. Due to solid solution strengthening and the precipitation of ζ-Ti5Si3 silicides in the highly Si-alloyed materials, an increase in hardness is observed. As the silicides act as effective obstacles for grain boundaries, these precipitates also control the grain growth kinetics of the α phase and are able to maintain a fine-grained microstructure at 1300°C for holding times up to 20 h. By utilizing in-situ high-energy X-ray diffraction experiments and differential scanning calorimetry, Si is found to exhibit similar effects as Al on the alloying system, effectively increasing solid-solid phase transition temperatures, while simultaneously decreasing the solidus temperature of the materials.",
