Transformation-induced ultra-thin plates of twins, where the formed from B2, were studied. It was noted that, whereas such twins were frequently observed in Ti-40Al-10at%V (due to the B2 transformation) they had not been observed in the lamellae of the 2- lamellar structure which formed via the and 2 2 + transformations in TiAl-based alloys or in which was nucleated from (A2). The results showed that these ultra-thin twin plates were secondary twins which formed between the advancing fronts of separately nucleated domains.
