AbstractTwo Zr-base bulk metallic glasses were investigated in the present work. DSC experiments were performed at different heating rates (dT/dt). Evolution of the characteristic temperatures, glass transition and onset of crystallisation, were determined as a function of dT/dt. Evolution of shear elastic modulus and internal friction are measured as a function of temperature and resulting microstructural evolution; these evolutions are related to variation of the atomic mobility.

This paper details a systematic investigation of the formation of Al-based bulk metallic glasses, expanding on an earlier brief report.[] We discuss an approach for designing and predicting the best glass-forming composition in the Al–TM–RE systems, based on the atomic cluster packing model for the internal structure of the glass. The effects of additional elements in quaternary and quinary systems on the glass-forming ability and thermal stability of the glasses are also discussed. Three new compositions, Al86Ni6Y4.5Co2La1.5, Al86Ni7Y5Co1La1 and Al86Ni7Y4.5Co1La1.5, are capable of forming fully glassy rods of 1 mm in diameter; their glass transition and other thermal properties are systematically characterized.

ABSTRACTBulk amorphous Pd-Ni-P and Pd-Cu-P alloy rods with diameters ranging from 7 to 25 mm have been synthesized over a wide composition range using a fluxing technique. For most bulk amorphous Pd-Ni-P alloys, the difference ΔT = Tx - Tg between the crystallization temperature Tx and the glass transition temperature Tg is larger than 90 K, while for bulk amorphous Pd-Cu-P alloys, ΔT varies from 27 to 73 K. Pd40Ni40P20 has the highest glass formability, and 300-gram bulk amorphous cylinders, 25 mm in diameter and 50 mm in length, can be easily produced. This size, however, is not an upper limit. The paper presents the glass formation ranges for both ternary alloy systems and data on the thermal stability of the amorphous alloys, as well as their specific heat, density, and elastic properties.
