The results reveal that Nb addition in TiAl alloys does not increase the carbon solubility in the γ matrix significantly. With increasing carbon concentration in the alloys, a splitting of the P-type carbides takes place earlier in the course of ageing at 800 °C and the formation of H-type carbides is promoted. For a nearly single γ phase alloy Ti51Al5Nb0.5C, H-type carbides are the thermodynamically stable phase. However, with decreasing Al concentration, P-type carbides become thermodynamically stable at low carbon concentration (below 1%) in Ti45Al and Ti45Al5Nb alloys. It is feasible to achieve high thermodynamical stability of the P-type carbides in TiAl alloys through controlling alloying elements.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.intermet.2017.05.006} (DOI).
