Medium Range

AbstractWe investigated the influence of annealing on the nanometer-scale medium-range order in Zr54Cu38Al8 bulk metallic glass using fluctuation electron microscopy. Fluctuation microscopy experiments probing structure at a length scale of 1 nm show that the as-cast Zr bulk metallic glass contains significant medium range order. That structure is unchanged by annealing at 87% of the glass transition temperature for 24 hours, although that anneal does significantly change the differential scanning calorimetry trace.

The Stability

ABSTRACTThe stability of a Pd40Cu30Ni10P20 bulk metallic glass (BMG) against structural relaxation is investigated by isothermal and isochronal annealing heat treatments below and above its glass transition temperature, Tg, for varying periods. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) of the annealed samples shows an excess endotherm at Tg, irrespective of the annealing temperature. This recovery peak evolves exponentially with annealing time and is due to the destruction of anneal-induced compositional short range ordering. The alloy exhibits a high resistance to crystallization on annealing below Tg and complex Pd- and Ni-phosphides evolve on annealing above Tg.
