The work is devoted to a brief overview of the Interstitialcy Theory (IT) as applied to different relaxation phenomena occurring in metallic glasses upon structural relaxation and crystallization. The basic hypotheses of the IT and their experimental verification are shortly considered. The main focus is given on the interpretation of recent experiments on the heat effects, volume changes and their link with the shear modulus relaxation. The issues related to the development of the IT and its relationship with other models on defects in metallic glasses are discussed.

Abstract We present a novel approach to the understanding of heat effects induced by structural relaxation of metallic glasses. The key idea consists in the application of a general thermodynamic equation for the entropy change due to the evolution of a non-equilibrium part of a complex system. This non-equilibrium part is considered as a defect subsystem of glass and its evolution is governed by local thermoactivated rearrangements with a Gibbs free energy barrier proportional to the high-frequency shear modulus. The only assumption on the nature of the defects is that they should provide a reduction of the shear modulus – a diaelastic effect. This approach allows to determine glass entropy change upon relaxation. On this basis, the kinetics of the heat effects controlled by defect-induced structural relaxation is calculated. A very good agreement between the calculation and specially performed calorimetric and shear modulus measurements on three metallic glasses is found.
