Effect of Au Content on Thermal Stability and Mechanical Properties of Au-Cu-Ag-Si Bulk Metallic Glasses

The thermal stability, glass-forming ability (GFA), and mechanical and electrical properties of Au-based Au _x Si₁₇Cu_75.5–x Ag_7.5 (x = 40 to 75.5 at. pct) metallic glasses were investigated. The glass transition temperature (T _g ) and crystallization temperature (T _x ) decreased with increasing Au content. The ultralow T _g values below 373 K (100 °C) were obtained for alloys with x = 55 to 75.5. The alloys with x = 45 to 70 exhibited a high stabilization of supercooled liquid and a high GFA, and the supercooled liquid region and critical sample diameter for glass formation were in the range of 31 K to 50 K and 2 to 5 mm, respectively. The compressive fracture strength (σ _c,f ), Young’s modulus (E), and Vicker’s hardness (H _v ) of the bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) decreased with increasing Au content. A linear correlation between Au concentration and the characteristic temperature, i.e., T _g and T _x , and mechanical properties, i.e., σ _c,f , E, and H _v , as well as electrical resistivity can be found in the BMGs, which will be helpful for the composition design of the desirable Au-based BMGs with tunable physical properties.     

Rate Dependence of Serrated Flow and Its Effect on Shear Stability of Bulk Metallic Glasses

The rate dependence of serrated flow and its effects on the stability of shear banding were systematically investigated in a prototypic bulk metallic glass.It was found that with the increase of external strain rate,the serra-ted flow is gradually suppressed and could completely disappear at a critical strain rate.The serration size,character-ized by the mean stress drop amplitude,decreases inversely with the strain rate,while the waiting time for serration decreases with the strain rate in a power-law manner.The rate dependence of the serrated flow has important effects on the dynamics and stability of shear banding process,and leads to an optimal plasticity achieved around the critical strain rate for the disappearance of serrated flow.These results are discussed and interpreted in terms of the mi-croscopic deformation theory and the stick-slip dynamics of shear banding for bulk metallic glasses.

Viscoplastic Forming of Mg Bulk Metallic Glasses in the Supercooled Liquid Region

The Mg-Cu-rare earth (RE) alloys are produced under the form of amorphous cylindrical rods and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Their capacity to be deformed in the supercooled liquid regions (SLRs) is studied. In the SLRs, crystallization can occur and strongly affect the viscoplastic forming conditions. Consequently, the thermal stabilities of the glasses are studied, in particular in the case of a Mg-Cu-Gd glass for which the kinetics of crystallization are quantified and the associated populations of crystallites identified. By appropriate heat treatments, various fractions of crystallites are thus produced and the effects of crystallization on the viscoplastic properties in the SLR are discussed in relation to mechanical models developed for materials containing rigid inclusions dispersed in a viscous medium. Finally, the possible effect of deformation on crystallization kinetics is also considered. This article is based on a presentation given in the symposium entitled “Bulk Metallic Glasses IV,” which occurred February 25–March 1, 2007 during the TMS Annual Meeting in Orlando, Florida under the auspices of the TMS/ASM Mechanical Behavior of Materials Committee.

Effect of Solute Contents of Al-Ni-Sr Alloy on Glass Forming Ability and Thermal Stability

Glass forming ability (GFA) and structural characterization of a new amorphous Al-Ni-Sr alloy melt spun were investigated on the theory of the factors for the glass formation. The GFA was varied with the ratio of Ni to Sr in detail and successful amorphous phase dispersed with 2 ～ 5 nm precipitates was prepared from Al-Ni5-Sr3. Thermal stability and crystallization behavior of the amorphous phase were determined by continuous and isothermal heating technique on DCS, resulting that the crystallization occurs by the growth of fcc Al nanocrystals on the preexistent nuclei.

Relaxation Behavior of Ca-Based Bulk Metallic Glasses

The relaxation behavior of Ca₆₀Mg₂₀Zn₂₀, Ca₆₀Mg₂₀Cu₂₀, Ca₆₅Mg₁₅Zn₂₀, Ca₅₀Mg₂₀Cu₃₀, and Ca₅₅Mg₁₈Zn₁₁Cu₁₆ bulk metallic glasses was determined in the glass transition region using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) with heating rates from 1 to 160 K/min. The activation enthalpy of structural relaxation and the fragility index m were found to be smaller in the glassy state (onset of the glass transition) than in the supercooled liquid state (end of glass transition). The Ca-based glass-forming liquids showed strong behavior of the relaxation time, with the fragility indexes m in the range of 33 to 40. The strong liquid behavior implies sluggish kinetics of crystallization in the supercooled liquid region and explains the very good glass-forming ability (GFA) of these alloys. The critical cooling rate for amorphization R _c of the Ca-based bulk metallic glasses was estimated to be in the range of 0.3 to 10 K/s, which is similar to R _c values for the best Pd- and Zr-based metallic glass-forming alloys discovered so far.     

Formation and Thermal Stability of Cu-Based Metallic Glasses with High Glass-Forming Ability

Cu-based Cu-Zr-Al metallic glass samples with diameters of more than 10?mm could be produced in a composition range of 45 to 52 (at. pct) Cu, 41 to 47?at.?pct Zr, and 6 to 10?at.?pct Al by a copper mold casting method. The best glass-forming ability was obtained for the Cu₄₇Zr₄₅Al₈ alloy, and the glassy sample with a diameter of 15?mm was fabricated. The minor addition of Ag or Dy can enhance the glass-forming ability of the Cu₄₇Zr₄₅Al₈ alloy, which decreases the liquidus temperatures, leading to increase in the reduced glass transition temperature. Fully glassy samples with diameters up to 20?mm were obtained for a (Cu_0.47Zr_0.45Al_0.08)₉₈Dy₂ alloy.     

Thermodynamics and Magnetostriction of Fe-Co-B-Si-Nb-C Bulk Metallic Glasses

Fe-Co-B-Si-Nb-C glassy alloy with the addition of C was prepared by arc melting and copper suck-casting. The thermodynamics and soft magnetic properties were investigated. The casted amorphous alloys were heat-treated at different temperatures. The differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) results and thermal expansion show complete thermodynamics of crystallization. Its magnetostriction properties were studied by capacitance method. Saturation magnetostriction increases to 38×10-6. The amorphous alloy exhibits good soft magnetic properties with low coercivity and high saturation magnetic induction. The results show that minor addition of C is beneficial to enhance the saturation magnetostriction λs, and do not deteriorate the ability of forming amorphous.     

Effect of Oxygen on Microstructure Evolution and Glass Formation of Zr-based Metallic Glasses

The effect of oxygen on the microstructure evolution and glass formation of Zr-based bulk metallic glasses(BMGs)was studied in detail.It was found that oxygen did not form oxides or dissolve in glass matrix,but induced the precipitation ofα-Zr which has the high affinity and solubility of oxygen in the Zr-based bulk metallic glass(ZrBMG).With the precipitation ofα-Zr,the remaining melts contain much lower oxygen content and have strong glass formation,resulting in the formation ofα-Zr/BMG composite.The findings provide an important insight into the mechanism of the oxygen on glass formation,and give us a useful guideline to avoid the oxygen detrimental for designing new BMGs.     

Investigating the Applicability and Limitations of Glass-Forming Criteria Based on Bond Parameters on Thermal Stability in Mg-Based Multicomponent Bulk Metallic Glasses

In this paper, correlation of thermal stability (\( \Delta {T_x} \)) with the bond parameters such as electronegativity (\( \Delta x \)), atomic radius mismatch (\( \delta \)), and valence electron concentration (\( \Delta {n^{1/3}} \)) for Mg-based multicomponent bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) have been evaluated. A statistical approach of regression analysis has been adopted to investigate correlations among these parameters. Available experimental data have been used for the systematic investigation from ternary to multicomponent Mg-based BMGs. In addition, the applicability of the criteria has been assessed for the systems with and without rare earth (RE) elements. We have found that BMG systems containing RE group elements have significant effect on width of supercooled liquid region. Results obtained from our modified empirical equation have been compared with that of earlier models and have shown better correlations.
