ABSTRACTThe high temperature deformation of the Zr41.2Ti12.5Cu13.8Ni10Be22.5 bulk metallic glass (BMG) is studied in the supercooled liquid region. Both fully amorphous and partially crystallized states are investigated. In the studied experimental domain, the amorphous alloy exhibits a Newtonian behavior at high temperature and/or low strain rate whereas a transition to non-Newtonian behavior is observed when the temperature is decreased and/or the strain rate is increased. In the Newtonian domain, the dependency of the viscosity upon temperature can be described by an Arrhénius law. As far as the as-received alloy is maintained at high temperature for which phase separation and primary crystallisation is expected, the flow stress continuously increases, which is at least partly attributed to a change in the residual amorphous phase.

The thermal properties of a Zr76.11Ti4.20Cu4.51Ni3.16Be1.49Nb10.53 bulk metallic glass (BMG) have been investigated by using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The composition of dendrite phase was then subsequently analyzed by using an EPMA, XRD, and TEM. The glass transition and crystallization onset temperatures were determined as 339.7 °C and 375.8 °C for this BMG, respectively. The Zr-Ti-Nb dendrite phase was found to have a BCC structure. Mechanical properties have also been examined by conducting a series of uniaxial compression tests at various temperatures within supercooled liquid region under the strain rates between 10-4 /s and 3×10-2 /s. The hardness of matrix and dendrite was then measured separately. The glassy matrix appears to play major role on the elongation, while dendrite phase on the strength of this BMG composite at high temperatures within supercooled liquid region.

Metallic Glass Matrix Composite

The compressive deformation behavior of as-cast Zr55.9Cu18.6Ta8Al7.5Ni10 Bulk Metallic Glass (BMG) composite with micro-scale particles of Ta-rich solid solution embedded in an amorphous matrix was investigated in the supercooled liquid region. It was found that the apparent viscosity of the BMG is dependent on temperature and strain rate. A deviation from a Newtonian behavior was observed at high strain rate and low temperature. The experimental results can be described by a master curve based on a stretched exponential function and the free volume theory. The structural state and the thermal ability of the BMG composite after deformation are also discussed in the paper.
