A detail study focussing the microstructural evolution of the interfacial zone in the courseof the processing of Ti-47Al-2Cr-2Nb joints using Tini 67 as filler alloy was carried out in thisinvestigation. Experiments, aiming the understanding of the mechanisms that promote the meltingof the braze alloy, were performed below the solidus temperature of the filler, at 750 and 900ºC.Diffusion brazed samples were joined at 1000 and 1100ºC, with no dwelling stage and subsequentlyquenched in water in order to frozen the microstructure formed at the bonding temperature. Theinterfaces were analysed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and by energy dispersive X-rayspectroscopy (EDS), respectively. In the course of the heating stage, several single phase layerswere formed within the filler alloy due to the solid state interdiffusion of Ti and Ni atoms. At900ºC, the microstructure of the filler evolved form the initial Ti (α)/(Ni)/Ti/ (α) layers to aTi (β)/Ti2Ni/TiNi/TiNi3/TiNi/Ti2Ni/Ti (β) layered microstructure. The filler alloy begun to melt dueto the eutectic reaction between the contiguous layers composed of Ti (β) and Ti2Ni. After joining,the main phases detected at the interfaces were α2-Ti3Al, Ti-Ni-Al and Ti-Ni intermetallics. Forjoining at 1000ºC, a substantial amount of residual filler (Ti2Ni and Ti (α) particles) was alsodetected at the central zone of the interface. No marked evidences of residual filler zones werenoticed for joining at 1100ºC; instead, a mixture α2-Ti3Al with Ti-Ni-Al or Ti2Ni intermetallics wasdetected at the centre of the interface
