The structures and thermal stabilities of the as-cast and as-rolled specimens were examined by X-ray diffractometer and differential scanning calorimeter. As the thickness reduction increases, the crystallization onset temperature, peak temperature and the apparent activation energy of crystallization almost keep constant, while the glass transition temperature decreases from 681 to 671 K and the apparent activation energy of glass transition increases from (404±26) to (471±29) kJ/mol. The glass transition process is markedly affected by the rolling induced changes of microstructure and structural relaxation.展开更多

The results show that there exists a first order exponential decay relation between the characteristic temperatures and the heating rates during continuous heating process. The activation energy for glass transition E g and that for crystallization E p and E x during continuous heating were evaluated by Kissinger plots. In addition, there is a second order exponential decay relation between the annealing temperature and the corresponding crystallization time during isothermal annealing. The isothermal activation energy obtained by Arrhenius equation increases as crystallization proceeds, indicating the sufficient stability of the residual amorphous structure after initial crystallization.展开更多
