An investigation has been made of the solid state constitution of the titanium rich portion of the Ti–Al–C system; partial isothermal sections have been established at 1250, 1050, and 750°C by means of electron microscopy (including energy dispersive X-ray analysis) and X-ray diffraction. In addition, a schematic liquidus projection has been deduced based on the solid state and as cast structures. The carbide phases present in the range studied are TiC, Ti3AlC, and Ti2AlC.
