A method for manufacturing a titanium aluminide blade of a turbine engine, including production of a titanium aluminide ingot, extrusion of the ingot through an opening in a die having one main arm and at least one side arm, such as to obtain a extruded ingot having the shape of a bar with a cross-section having one main arm and at least one side arm substantially perpendicular to the main arm, transverse cutting of the extruded ingot such as to obtain sections of extruded ingot, forging of each section of extruded ingot such as to obtain a turbine engine blade.

When forming ultra-conductive wire, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are dispersed and de-agglomerated in hot metal. The MWCNTs are dispersed in a precursor matrix via mixing and sintering to form precursor material, which is hot-extruded multiple rounds at a predetermined temperature to form a nano-composite material. The nano-composite material is inserted into a metal bar to form a nano-composite billet (306), which is subjected to multiple rounds of hot extrusion to form an ultra-conductive material. The ultra-conductive material is subjected to one or more rounds of hot wire drawing to form an ultra-conductive wire comprising a nano-composite filament.
