AbstractThe thermal stability and local atomic structures of glassy Fe70M10B20 (M = Hf, Zr, Nb, W and Cr) alloys were analyzed by DSC, ordinary X-ray diffraction and AXS measurements. The random network of the trigonal prism-like structure of (Fe,M)3B with edge-sharing, was identified in all the Fe70M10B20 (M = Hf, Zr, Nb, W and Cr) alloys in spite of the wide variety of thermal stability upon heating. Several unique primary precipitated crystalline phases, such as Fe23B6 type and Fe-M phases, were observed in the alloys exhibiting a high thermal stability. These crystallization reactions require relatively long range rearrangements of the constituents and hence the thermal stability of the glassy phase increases, leading to the appearance of a large supercooled liquid region upon heating. These phenomena may be originated from the difference in the chemical affinity and the atomic size mismatch between M and Fe or B.

High-strength Cu-based bulk glassy alloys with a large supercooled liquid region in Cu-Zr-Ti-Ni systems were prepared by means of copper mold casting. The Cu-based bulk glassy alloys samples were tested by X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Instron testing machine. The result indicates, the maximum diameter was 5.0 mm for the Cu55Zr25Ti15Ni5 bulk glassy alloy. The temperature interval of supercooled liquid region (ΔTx) is as large as 45.48-70.98 K for the Cu-Zr-Ti-Ni alloy. The Cu-based glassy alloys rods exhibited the very high mechanical properties and the distinct plastic strains. The compressive fracture strength is 2155 MPa, 2026 MPa and 1904 MPa respectively for Cu50Zr25Ti15Ni10, Cu55Zr25Ti15Ni5 and Cu54Zr22Ti18Ni6 bulk glassy alloys. The Vickers hardness is respectively 674, 678 and 685 for the Cu50Zr25Ti15Ni10, Cu55Zr25Ti15Ni5 and Cu54Zr22Ti18Ni6 bulk glassy alloys. The addition Co element to Cu-Zr-Ti-Ni alloy expand the ΔTx, the ΔTx is 74.5 K for Cu50Zr22Ti18Ni6Co4 bulk glassy alloys.

We investigated the effects of addition elements (Sn, Al, Si, Ag, Fe, Cr) with a small amount on the glass-forming ability, thermal stability and mechanical properties of the Ti-Zr-Cu-Pd glassy alloy system. The results revealed that minor Sn addition improved the glass-forming ability, thermal stability and plasticity, Si addition enlarged the supercooled liquid region, and Fe addition improved the plasticity, while minor additions of Si, Ag, Fe, and Cr lowered the glass-forming ability, and Al and Cr additions were harmful to the plasticity of the Ti-Zr-Cu-Pd glassy alloy system.

Formation of bulk Fe-based glassy alloys with high corrosion resistance was succeeded in the Fe75–x–yCrxMoyC15B10 alloy system. A large temperature interval of supercooled liquid region (ΔTx) of 40–90 K was obtained over a wide composition range for the Fe75?x–yCrxMoyC15B10 alloys. The Fe75–x–yCrxMoyC15B10 alloys were prepared in a bulk glassy form with diameters of 1.0–2.5 mm by copper mold casting. The bulk glassy Fe75–x–yCrxMoyC15B10 alloys exhibited high corrosion resistance in 1 N HCl solution. The glassy alloys containing Cr were spontaneously passivated with a wide passive region before the transpassive dissolution of Cr. The passive current density decreased significantly with an increase of alloying Cr content, indicating that the addition of Cr was effective on enhancing the corrosion resistance. Excess addition of Mo for replacing Fe in the present alloys was detrimental for the corrosion resistance.

The influence of annealing on the structural changes and the mechanical properties of Zr41.2Ti13.8Cu12.5Ni10Be22.5 (Vit-1) bulk metallic glass was systematically studied by varying the annealing times at 703 K. The evolution of the structural state at a relatively high temperature within the supercooled liquid region was studied by thermal analysis, x-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, extended x-ray absorption fine structure, and dilatometric measurements. The deformation behavior and the mechanical properties were also examined by carrying out hardness and compression tests for the specimens annealed for various times.

In the current study, the amorphization behavior of mechanically alloyed Ni57Zr20Ti22Pb1 powder was examined in details. The conventional X-ray diffraction results confirm that the fully amorphous powders formed after 5 hours of milling. The thermal stability of the Ni57Zr20Ti22Pb1 amorphous powders was investigated by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). As the results demonstrated, the glass transition temperature (Tg) and the crystallization temperature (Tx) are 760 K and 850 K, respectively. The supercooled liquid region is 90 K. The appearance of wide supercooled liquid region may be mainly due to the Pb additions which cause the increasing differences in atomic size of mechanically alloyed Ni57Zr20Ti22Pb1 powders.

Glassy [(Fe0.8Co0.1Ni0.1)0.75B0.2Si0.05]96Nb4 alloy rods with glass transition temperature of 835 K, followed by a large supercooled liquid region of 55 K were produced in the diameter range up to 2 mm by copper mold casting. The glassy alloy rods exhibit super-high true fracture strength of 4225 MPa combined with elastic strain of 0.02 and true plastic strain of 0.005. The super-high strength alloy simultaneously exhibits high magnetization of 1.1 T, low coercivity of 3 A/m, and high permeability of 1.8 × 104 at 1 kHz. The success of synthesizing a super-high strength Fe-based bulk glassy alloy with some compressive plastic strain and good soft magnetic properties is encouraging for future development of Fe-based bulk glassy alloys as new engineering and functional materials.
