1000, 1100 and 1150°C isothermal sections of the Ti-Al-Nb system were studied using x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and electron probe microanalysis. A small island-like region of single b 0 is present at 1000, but absent at 1100 and 1150°C. c 1 is not a stable phase at 1000 and 1150°C. Three three-phase fields (a 2 ? b 0 ? r, b 0 ? r ? c and a 2 ? b 0 ? c) are identified in the 1000°C isothermal section (30-60 at.% Ti content). The 1100°C isothermal section is firstly studied completely. It includes six three-phase and thirteen two-phase fields. Two three-phase fields b ? a 2 ? c and b ? r ? c are identified in the isothermal section (30-60 at.% Ti content) at 1150°C. These data are helpful to the fabrication of the TiAl and Ti 2 AlNb intermetallics.

This invited article is part of a special issue of the Journal of Phase Equilibria and Diffusion in honor of Prof. Zhanpeng Jin's 80th birthday. The special issue was organized by Prof. Ji-Cheng (JC) Zhao,
