The effect of vanadium additions on the thermal stability of Al-TI alloy vas investigated. Al- 8wt.%Ti and Al-8wt.%(Ti+V) alloys wirh different Ti to V atomic ratios of 3 : 1 and 1 : 1 were pre- pared by mechanical alloying. The steady states wwe obtalncd after mechanical alloy~ng for ltihours for all the alloy compositions. The mechanically alloyed powders were consolidaicd by vacuum hot pressing and thermal st.ability was investigated by hardness testing afrcr aging thc specimens at $400^{circ}C$, $480^{circ}C$, $550^{circ}C$ for up to 1000hrs. It was confirmed that addit~on of V- increased the thermal stability of Al-Ti alloy by reducing coarsening rate of $Ai_{3}Ti$ intermetallic compound.
