Abstract
We created high-aspect-ratio sub-micron-sized lamellar porous structure by simple anodic selective dissolution of lamellar Ti-Al alloy in NaCl aqueous solution. The geometries of lamellar structures, which determined those of lamellar porous structure, were controlled by hot forging and subsequent ageing treatment before dissolution process. Although the changes in microstructure affected the selective dissolution behaviors, γ-TiAl phase could be dissolved selectively. As a result, the average sizes of unidirectional units of lamellar pores could be controlled in the range from to 25 μm to 500 μm. The pitches of the lamellar pores were controlled in the wide range from below 100 nm to over 1 μm.
