The site preference of Si in TiAl3 is calculated using first principles method based on Density Functional Theory. Through the analyses and comparison of the binding energy of systems with different substitution behaviors, it is shown that Si prefers to occupy the site of Al(2) and the limited solubility of Si in TiAl3 is around 12.5%. Then this article made a research on the antioxidant properties of different doped concentration of Si in TiAl3, and the result showed that the Si doping enhanced the oxidation resistance of the Ti-Al alloy.
