Abstract: The phase transformation and deformation mechanism of the alloy based on composition Ti_3Al with addition of Nb,V,Mo have been studied by use of transmission electron microscopy (TEM).It has been shown that the orientation relationship of α_2 phase transformed from β phase is:(0001)α_2// (l10)β,[1210]α_2//[111]β.The present dislocation slip systems in α_2 phase are (1100)[0001] and (1100)<1120>.There also exist α_2 twins which have new twin relationship and the twin plane is (2021).

Key words: Ti_3Al-base alloy, phase transformation, deformation mechanism
