Ferromagnetic Fe-based Amorphous Alloy with High Glass-forming Ability

A ferromagnetic amorphous Fe73Al4Ge2Nb1P10C6B4 alloy with high glass-forming ability was synthesized by melt spinning. The supercooled liquid region before crystallization reaches about 65.7 K. The crystallized structure consists of alpha -Fe, Fe3B, FeB, Fe3P and Fe3C phases. The Fe-based amorphous alloy exhibits good magnetic properties with a high saturation magnetization and a low saturated magnetostriction. The crystallization leads to an obvious decrease in the soft magnetic properties.     

Glass-Forming Ability for Nd_(70-x)Fe_(20)Al_(10)Y_x and Nd_(60-x)Fe_(30)Al_(10)Y_x Alloys

The glass-forming ability (GFA) of Nd70-xFe2oAl10Yx and Nd60-xFe30Al10Yx (0< x <15) alloys produced by Cu mold casting was investigated. Except Y=5 at. pct, bulk amorphous Nd70-xFe20Al10Yx alloys up to 2 mm in diameter were obtained. The GFA for Nd60-xFe30Al10Yx alloys, however, was found to decrease with increase of Y due to the increasing compositional deviation from the original eutectic point of Nd60Fe30Al10 alloy. The Nd60Fe20Al10Y10 and Nd60Fe30Al10 alloy exhibit the largest GFA and can be cast into bulk amorphous cylindrical specimens of 3 mm in diameter. The melting temperature or/and the reduced crystallization temperature is closely related to the GFA of Y-containing alloys. The bulk amorphous cylinder for the Nd55Fe20Al10Y15 alloy shows a distinct glass transition temperature and a wide supercooled liquid region before crystallization. The crystallization temperature, Tg, and the supercooled liquid region, TX, are 776 K and 58 K, respectively. The GFA and thermal stability of the Nd-Fe-AI-Y a

High formability of glass plus fcc-Al phases in rapidly solidified Al-based multicomponent alloy

A multicomponent Al₈₄Y₉Ni₄Co_1.5Fe_0.5Pd₁ alloy was found to keep a mixed glassy + Al phases in the relatively large ribbon thickness range up to about 200 μm for the melt-spun ribbon and in the diameter range up to about 1100 μm for the wedge-shaped cone rod prepared by injection copper mold casting. The glassy phase in the Al-based alloy has a unique crystallization process of glass transition, followed by supercooled liquid region, fcc-Al + glass, and then Al + Al₃Y + Al₉ (Co, Fe)₂ + unknown phase. It is also noticed that the primary precipitation phase from supercooled liquid is composed of an Al phase instead of coexistent Al + compound phases, being different from the crystallization mode from supercooled liquid for ordinary Al-based glassy alloys. In addition, it is noticed that the mixed Al and glassy phases are extended in a wide heating temperature range of 588–703 K, which is favorable for the development of high-strength nanostructure Al-based bulk alloys obtained by warm extrusion of mixed Al + amorphous phases. The Vickers hardness is about 415 for the glassy phase and increases significantly to about 580 for the mixed Al and glassy phases. The knowledge of forming Al + glassy phases with high hardness in the wide solidification and annealing conditions through high stability up to complete crystallization for the multicomponent alloy is promising for future development of a high-strength Al-based bulk alloy.     

Crystallization of (Fe, Co)78Si9B13 alloys: influence of relaxation processes

Crystallization of Fe78-xCoxSi9B13 amorphous alloys has been studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermomagnetic gravimetry and X-ray diffraction techniques. Thermal stability of the amorphous alloy monotonically decreases with increasing cobalt content. The devitrification process as detected by DSC occurs in two main stages partially overlapping in temperature, but magnetic characterization reveals a third stage for cobalt-rich alloys. Primary precipitation of -(Fe, Co) is followed by a polymorphic reaction to give (Fe, Co)2B phase. Fe3B-type phase is also detected at the end of the first crystallization stage for iron-rich alloys and -Co(Si) and Co2B phases are found in fully crystallized samples for x=60. The influence of relaxation processes on the crystallization was investigated, but no significant effects of pre-annealing on the crystallization parameters resulted. © 1998 Chapman & Hall     

Density and thermal expansion of Cr–Fe, Fe–Ni, and Cr–Ni binary liquid alloys

Densities and their temperature coefficients of liquid Cr–Fe, Fe–Ni, and Cr–Ni binary alloys have been measured containerless using the technique of electromagnetic levitation. Data have been obtained in a wide temperature range including the supercooled region. The density measurements indicate that these binary systems have a small and positive excess volume, whereas the excess free energies are negative. The temperature coefficients of these alloys can be estimated from those of the pure components. Hence, possible contributions from the temperature dependence of the excess volume can be ignored to calculate the temperature coefficient of density.     

Impurity-driven nanocrystallization of Zr-based bulk amorphous alloys

The effect of oxygen content and Ti addition on the glass forming ability (GFA) and crystallization kinetic of Zr-based bulk glass forming alloys have been studied by means of thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction techniques. Presence of oxygen triggers the formation of a nanocrystalline metastable f.c.c. Zr2 Ni-type phase which can act as heterogenous nucleation sites for the formation of dendrites during solidification. An increase in oxygen content changes the crystallization behaviour from a single- to a double-step process and triggers the crystallization of stable Zr2(Cu,Al) besides metastable Zr2 Ni-type phase. Oxygen-triggered nucleation of a nanocrystalline metastable Zr2 Ni-type phase is found to be the initial step of crystallization. The important parameters of GFA such as glass transition temperatures, Tg, the crystallization temperatures, Tx, and crystallization enthalpies, deltaH, were determined by using DSC. It was observed that the presence of oxygen, even in a very small amount, and Ti addition cause a drastic reduction of the supercooled liquid region, deltaTx, accompanied by a change of the crystallization kinetic. This leads to the decrease in stability of the supercooled liquid, consequently results in a deterioration of the glass forming ability of the alloy.

Effect of composition on the crystallization and magnetic properties of Fe–Co–Si–B–Nb amorphous alloys

The crystallization behavior and magnetic properties of Fe₆₂Co₁₀Si_15−x B_18−y Nb_{(x + y)−5} amorphous alloys with x = 0–5 and y = 0–5 were examined. Primary crystallization temperature of Fe₆₂Co₁₀Si_15−x B₁₃Nb _x and Fe₆₂Co₁₀Si₁₀B_18−y Nb _y alloys increased with the addition of Nb. The primary and secondary crystallization temperatures were well separated when the Nb content is above 4 at%. The alloys with 15–18 at% B showed a distinct supercooled region. The Nb addition decreased the Curie temperature as well as room temperature saturation magnetization. The glassy-type Fe₆₂Co₁₀Si₁₀B₁₈ alloy exhibited good soft magnetic properties as well as a supercooled liquid region of 39 K. The finding of the glassy-type Fe-based alloy without Nb element exhibiting high Bs above 1.4 T is promising for future use as a soft magnetic glass material.

The effect of Fe on the crystallization behavior of Al–Mm–Ni–Fe amorphous alloys

The crystallization behavior and thermal stability of Al₈₆Mm₄Ni_10–x Fe _x alloys were investigated as a function of Fe content. Alloys, produced by a single roll melt-spinner at a circumferential speed of 52 m/s, revealed fully amorphous structures. The thermal stability of the present amorphous alloys increased with the increase of Fe content. The activation energy for crystallization of -Al increased as the Fe content increased. This increase of activation energy resulted in the simultaneous precipitation of -Al and intermetallic phase observed especially in Al₈₆Mm₄Ni₅Fe₅ and Al₈₆Mm₄Ni₂Fe₈ alloys. The glass transition was observed in DSC thermogram only after proper annealing treatment. The effect of alloy composition on the thermal stability could be explained in terms of the atomic structure of the amorphous alloy.     

Kinetics of crystallization of a Fe-based multicomponent amorphous alloy

The Fe-based multicomponent amorphous alloys (also referred to as metallic glasses) are known to exhibit soft magnetic properties and, it makes them important for many technological applications. However, metallic glasses are in a thermodynamically metastable state and in case of high temperature operating conditions, the thermally activated crystallization would be detrimental to their magnetic properties. The study of crystallization kinetics of metallic glasses gives useful insight about its thermal stability. In the present work, crystallization study of Fe₆₇Co₁₈B₁₄Si₁ (2605CO) metallic glass has been carried out using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) technique. Mössbauer study has also been undertaken to know the phases formed during the crystallization process. The alloy shows two-stage crystallization. The activation energy has been derived using the Kissinger method. It is found to be equal to 220 kJ/mol and 349 kJ/mol for the first and second crystallization peaks, respectively. The Mössbauer study indicates the formation of α-(Fe, Co) and (Fe, Co)₃B phases in the alloy.     

Deformation behavior of a TiZr-based metallic glass composite containing dendrites in the supercooled liquid region

The deformation behavior of a TiZr-based bulk metallic glass composite(BMGC) was characterized in the supercooled liquid region(SLR) from 623 K to 693 K. It was observed that the alloy exhibits the deformation behavior from work softening at low temperatures to work hardening at high temperatures.The yield stress and overshoot stress decrease remarkably with the increase of temperature, accompanied by superplasticity. The results showed that the crystallization occurred in the amorphous matrix for the post-deformation samples and the volume fraction of the corresponding crystallization products increased with increasing testing temperature. It is implied that the work hardening behavior was closely associated with the crystallization of the amorphous matrix. The tensile stress can accelerate the crystallization of amorphous matrix and the martensitic transformation of dendrite phases, which implies that the thermal stability of the alloy decreases under tension. These findings shed light on designing new BMGCs with high mechanical performance as well as the good SLR formability.     

La2Fe14B和Ce2Fe14B合金在快淬和热处理过程中相析出行为的比较

研究了溶体快淬三元La_2Fe_(14)B和Ce_2Fe_(14)B合金的相析出行为和磁性能,对不同快淬速度(10~50 m/s)和不同热处理温度下制备的样品进行了系统分析。结果表明,通过直接快淬,La_2Fe_(14)B合金中不能形成2∶14∶1硬磁相,而Ce_2Fe_(14)B合金可以获得2∶14∶1相。La_2Fe_(14)B合金在10m/s快淬时主要由La和α-Fe相组成,而Ce_2Fe_(14)B合金中2∶14∶1硬磁相在10m/s和20m/s快淬时析出。随着辊速的增加,非晶相逐渐增多并成为主相。在热处理过程中,La_2Fe_(14)B合金析出相以α-Fe和La相为主,并且高温下液态的富La相和α-Fe相可以共存;而Ce_2Fe_(14)B合金中先析出α-Fe,后析出2∶14∶1硬磁相,随后析出相长大。结果还表明,La_2Fe_(14)B比Ce_2Fe_(14)B有更高的非晶居里温度和更低的α-Fe相析出温度。由于硬磁相的析出,Ce_2Fe_(14)B合金可以获得较好的硬磁性能,包括一定的矫顽力。此研究对含La、Ce稀土永磁材料的生产具有一定的指导作用。     

Ti-based amorphous alloys with a wide supercooled liquid region

Ti-Cu-Ni-Co quaternary amorphous alloys produce by melt spinning were found to have a wide supercooled liquid region before crystallization, though no glass transition was observed in Ti-Cu binary amorphous alloys. The largest temperature interval of the supercooled liquid region (ΔT_x) is as large as 90 K for Ti₅₀Cu₂₅Ni₂₀Co₅.There is a tendency for ΔT_x to increase with an increase in storage modulus and with a decrease in loss modulus. It is therefore presumed that the increase in ΔT_x for the multicomponent amorphous alloy is due to the suppression of crystallization for the supercooled liquid resulting from the increase in viscosity.
