Dynamic mechanical behavior of a Zr-based bulk metallic glass during glass transition and crystallization

The dynamic mechanical behaviors of the Zr41Ti14Cu12.5Ni8Be22.5Fe2 bulk metallic glass (BMG) during continuous heating at a constant rate were investigated. The glass transition and crystallization of the Zr-based BMG were thus characterized by the measurements of storage modulus E and internal friction Q-1. It was found that the variations of these dynamic mechanical quantifies with temperature were interre-lated and were well in agreement with the DSC trace obtained at the same heating rate. The origin of the first peak in the internal friction curve was closely related to the dynamic glass transition and subsequent primary crystallization. Moreover, it can be well described by a physical model, which can characterize atomic mobility and mechanical response of disordered condense materials. In comparison with the DSC trace, the relative position of the first internal friction peak of the BMG was found to be dependent on its thermal stability against crys-tallization.

采用统计学方法研究了应变速率对Zr_(67.76)Cu_(11.94)Ni_(8.30)Al_(12)非晶复合材料力学性能及锯齿流变行为的影响。结果表明:随着应变速率的增加,材料的塑性应变减小,抗压强度下降;同时应力降幅Δσ的锯齿分布从单调下降分布转变为峰状分布,应力降幅的频数由小应力降幅区间向大应力降幅区间过渡,单位塑性应变的锯齿频数M呈下降趋势,试棒侧面剪切带数量减少且相互交割、分支、阻止作用明显减弱,此时,由多重剪切带扩展转变为单一剪切带扩展,使得材料的力学性能迅速下降。     

冷却速率对Ti40.9Zr30.4Nb4.2Cu7Ni1.7Be15.8内生型非晶合金复合材料组织及性能的影响

Plasticity improvement of (Cu43Zr48Al9)98Y2 bulk metallic glass composites by dispersed Ta particles

(Cu₄₃Zr₄₈Al₉)₉₈Y₂-based bulk metallic glass composites (BMGCs) with dispersed Ta particles (3vol.%, 6vol.%, 9vol.%) were successfully fabricated through suction casting. The thermal properties, microstructure, and mechanical properties of the BMGCs were systematically investigated. Ta particles are homogeneously dispersed in the amorphous matrix. Ta particle reinforced BMGCs exhibit similar thermal properties and glass-forming ability with the (Cu₄₃Zr₄₈Al₉)₉₈Y₂ base BMG. Compression test results show that the BMGC with 9vol.% Ta particles has superior mechanical performance with up to 15.7% compressive plastic strain, 2,216 MPa yield strength, and 2,260 MPa fracture strength at room temperature. These homogeneously distributed Ta particles act as discrete obstacles in the amorphous matrix, restricting the highly localized shear band. This results in the formation of multiple shear bands around the Ta-rich particles, which lowers the stress concentration, allowing the shear band to propagate further and improve plasticity.

The origin of a two-stage endothermic reaction in Zr36Ti24Be40 metallic glass

The origin of a two-stage endothermic reaction in Zr₃₆Ti₂₄Be₄₀ metallic glass was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermo-mechanical analyzer (TMA) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HREM). HREM image of a specimen heated to 420°C under a constant applied tensile stress of 3 MPa showed the formation of medium-range-ordered clusters 1 nm to 2 nm in size. This phenomenon is attributed to strain-induced deformation. This suggests that the formation of clusters may be an appropriate interpretation of the additional endothermic heat in the supercooled liquid region.

添加微量Fe对Zr_(55)Al_(10)Ni_5Cu_(30)块体金属玻璃非晶形成能力和力学性能的影响(英文)

通过磁悬浮熔炼和铜模吸铸法制备直径3mm的(Zr0.55Al0.10Ni0.05Cu0.30)100-xFex(x=0,1,2,3,4)合金试样,研究Fe元素的微量添加对Zr55Al10Ni5Cu30块体金属玻璃非晶形成能力和力学性能的影响。研究表明,合理添加Fe元素(不超过3%,摩尔分数)导致约化玻璃转变温度Trg(=Tg/Tl)和参数γ(=Tx/(Tg+Tl))增大,因而其非晶形成能力增大,但添加过量的Fe元素(4%)会导致其非晶形成能力的降低。添加Fe元素也会显著地改善Zr55Al10Ni5Cu30块体金属玻璃的压缩塑性及提高其压缩断裂强度,当Fe元素的添加量为2%时,直径3mm、长度6mm的试样在压缩时出现一定的塑性及加工硬化现象。Fe元素添加量为4%形成的金属玻璃基复合材料,同样也显示良好的压缩塑性和高的压缩断裂强度。     

Preparation and electrochemical characterization of Ti-based amorphous metallic glass with high strength

Ti-based amorphous metallic glasses have excellent mechanical, physical, and chemical properties, which is an important development direction and research hotspot of metal composite reinforcement. As a stable, simple, efficient, and large-scale preparation technology of metallic powders, the gas atomization process provides an effective way of preparing amorphous metallic glasses. In this study, the controllable fabrication of a Ti-based amorphous powder, with high efficiency, has been realized by using gas atomization. The scanning electron microscope, energy-dispersive spectrometer, and X-ray diffraction are used to analyze surface morphology, element distribution, and phase structure, respectively. A microhardness tester is used to measure the mechanical property. An electrochemical workstation is used to characterize corrosion behavior. The results show that as-prepared microparticles are more uniform and exhibit good amorphous characteristics. The mechanical test shows that the hardness of amorphous powder is significantly increased as compared with that before preparation, which has the prospect of being an important part of engineering reinforced materials. Further electrochemical measurement shows that the corrosion resistance of the as-prepared sample is also significantly improved. This study has laid a solid foundation for expanding applications of Ti-based metallic glasses, especially in heavy-duty and corrosive domains.     

不锈钢网增强锆基非晶复合材料的压铸制备及力学性能研究

全程真空压铸技术的快速发展为大块非晶合金的工业化应用提供了可能,受到了广泛关注。但是,非晶合金的室温脆性限制了压铸结构件在一些关键领域的应用。本论文利用压铸工艺高速充型及高压凝固的特性,通过在Vit1锆基非晶合金中引入304不锈钢网叠层焊接制造的骨架,成功制备出了不同体积分数晶态相增强的非晶复合材料,并系统研究了不锈钢网体积分数对力学性能的影响。研究结果表明,不锈钢网在非晶基体中均匀分布,与非晶合金存在冶金界面结合。力学性能测试显示,随着不锈钢编织网的引入,室温脆性的压铸Vit1块体金属玻璃的塑性得到了显著提升。随着不锈钢网目数增大(对应晶态相体积分数增大),非晶复合材料的塑性呈增大的趋势,但是,当目数超过200时,过细的孔洞会导致骨架局部区域无法填充,恶化性能。当晶态相的体积分数为53.7％时,断裂应变达到最大值,约为10％左右,其值高于传统不锈钢纤维增韧的Zr基非晶复合材料。韧化机制分析表明,压铸非晶合金出现脆-延性转变的根本原因是不锈钢网对剪切带扩展进行高效抑制,促进剪切带的增殖和萌生,减少宏观塑性变形的局域化。本研究为非晶复合材料的结构设计提供了新的思路,对于促进非晶合金的更广泛应用具有重要的工程价值。     

Crystallization kinetics and induced magnetic properties of bulk （Fe,Co）-Zr-Nd-B metallic glass

Crystallization kinetics and phase transformation of bulk Fe64 Co7 Zr6 Nd3B20 metallic glass were studied by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Based on the Kissinger analyses, the activation energies for the nucleation and growth during the first, second and third crystallization-stages of the metallic glass are determined to be 294, 475 and 365 kJ/mol, respectively, and the activation energy for the glass transition is determined to be 1 242 kJ/mol. The Johnson-Mehl-Avrami (JMA) analysis under the isothermal condition reveals that the crystallization process is a three-dimensional controlled growth of nuclei at a constant nucleation rate. The crystalline grains are in the size of less than 50 nm after the selected annealing treatments. In the completely crystallized state, the alloy exhibits the maximum coercivity (Hc) of 34.8 kA/m and corresponding energy product of 11 kJ/m^3.     

Phases in the crystallization process of Zr_(65)Al_(7.5)Ni_(10)Cu_(17.5)metallic glass

The crystallization process of metallic glass Zr65Al7.5Ni10Cu17.5, (atom fraction in %) were studied by transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Two stages of crystallization process, which are indicated by the two exothermic peaks in the differential scanning calorimetry diagram, were studied separately.

While in the second stage, in addition to the above phases, phase hP2-Al2NiZr6 and phase hP3-α-Zr appear, between which another orientation relationship is also found. At the same time, a comparison is made based on the study of the phases exist in the arc-melted master ingot. The lattice parameters of the identified phases were determined and some interesting similarities were found. According to these similarities, all the phases were classified into two groups.

Effect of Al addition on formation and mechanical properties of Mg-Cu-Gd bulk metallic glass

The effect of partial substitution of Al for Cu on the glass forming ability（GFA） and mechanical properties of Mg65Cu25-xAlxGd10 （x=0, 1, 3 and 5, molar fraction, %） alloys were studied by X-ray diffi-actometry（XRD）, differential scanning calorimetry（DSC） and uniaxial compression test. The result reveals that GFA of the alloys changes slightly with increasing x from 0 to 3, and then abruptly decreases with x increasing up to 5. The plasticity can be greatly improved with appropriate substitution of Cu by A1 （3%, molar fraction） in Mg65Cu25Gd10 bulk metallic glass, and the resultant fracture strength, total strain to failure, and plastic strain are 898 MPa, 2.19% and 0.2%, respectively.

Design of Bulk metallic glasses with high glass forming ability and enhancement of plasticity in metallic glass matrix composites: A review

To overcome some of the limits of existing metallic alloys, a new alloy design concept has been introduced recently in order to control the crystallinity, i.e. to utilize crystalline, quasicrystalline, and amorphous structures. In particular, bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) receive great attention because of their unique properties due to their different atomic configuration. Recently, significant progress in enhancing glass forming ability (GFA) has led to the fabrication of BMGs having potential for application as structural and functional materials. Moreover, successful design of BMG matrix composite microstructure suggests that the plasticity of BMGs can be controlled properly. In this review article, we introduce recent research results on the design of BMGs with high GFA and on the enhancement of plasticity in metallic glass matrix composites.     

合金微结构的调整对铁基块体金属玻璃室温塑性的影响(英文)

报道一种新奇的现象,即随着Fe75Mo5P10C8.3B1.7块体金属玻璃的直径从1.5mm增加到2.0mm,其室温压缩塑性反而从0.5%增加到1.8%。这主要归因于随着铁基块体金属玻璃样品直径的增加,原位形成了零星的α-Fe枝晶相,这种在边缘化的块体金属玻璃中出现的异质结构是提高当前铁基块体金属玻璃室温塑性的主要原因。     

Temperature effects on mechanical properties,deformation behavior and formability of Zr−Ti−Cu−Ni−Be−Nb bulk metallic glass composite

The deformation behavior and macroscopic formability of a Zr-based bulk metallic glass composite (BMGC) has been investigated in this study by performing a series of compression and laboratory-scale extrusion tests under various deformation rates within the supercooled liquid temperature region. The morphology of Zr−Ti−Nb-rich dendrite precipitates after warm deformation was first examined by using optical microscopy (OM) and a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). The extrusion of this BMGC alloy within the supercooled liquid temperature region was found more difficult than the extrusion of other Zr-based monolithic BMG alloys, possibly due to the existence of dendrite phases hindering the characteristic viscous flow generated in the amorphous phase. A FEM simulation has also been carried out by utilizing the stress-strain behaviors obtained from high temperature compression tests, and the results have been compared with the experimental extrusion test results. The FEM simulation results for the extrusion process as well as a processing map based on a dynamic materials model (DMM) were found to agree relatively well with the actual macroscopic extrusion formability.
