Techniques of rapid solidification processing were used to refine a dispersion of rare earth oxides in Ti. The dispersion was produced by laser surface melting and subsequent heat treatment of a Ti-Er alloy. The second phase was identified as the rare earth oxide. The stability of the dispersion was investigated analytically and experimentally and the correlation between the analysis and experiments was shown to be very good.
