AlNb pre-alloyed powders were prepared by plasma rotating electrode process (PREP) and electrode induction melting gas atomization (EIGA) respectively
and the pre-alloyed powders were characterized. Ti

AlNb alloy was prepared by hot isostatic pressing (HIP) process
and the effects of powder preparing process on microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti

AlNb powder prepared by EIGA method is higher than that of PREP method. The forming res
earch of Ti

AlNb impeller was carried out under the regime of 1030 ℃/140 MPa/3 h based on the powder metallurgy HIP near net shape technology. The finite element simulation results show that the higher the powder compaction density
the smaller the deformation degree of the HIPed component. Ti
