The effects of Ti addition on the microstructure, mechanical and corrosion properties of the（Zr_（0.55）Al_（0.1）Ni_（0.05）Cu_（0.3））_（100-x）Ti_x alloys were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, compressive tests and corrosion tests. It has been found that the addition of Ti higher than 4%（mole fraction） causes the formation of many crystalline phases in the alloy. The alloys with 1%-3% Ti display an obvious yield stage on their compressive stress-strain curves. An appropriate addition of Ti can improve the strength and ductility of the alloys. All the alloys have high corrosion resistance in 1 mol/L Na OH solution, and are corroded in 1 mol/L HCl solution. However, the appropriate addition of Ti can significantly improve the corrosion resistance of the alloys in HCl solution.展开更多

The microstructures of transversal and longitudinal sections were exposed by chemical etching and observed by scanning electron microscopy （SEM）. The mechanical properties were examined by room-temperature uniaxial compression test. The results show that both plasticity and fracture mode are significantly affected by the network structure and the alteration occurs when the size of the network structure reaches up to a critical value. When the cell size （dc） of the network structure is ~3μm, Zr-based BMGs characterize in plasticity that decreases with increasingdc. The fracture mode gradually transforms from single 45° shear fracture to double 45° shear fracture and then cleavage fracture with increasingdc. In addition, the mechanisms of the transition of the plasticity and the fracture mode for these Zr-based BMGs are also discussed.展开更多

The structures were examined by X-ray diffraction （XRD）. The effect of Fe on the glass-forming ability was studied by differential scanning calorimetry （DSC）. The minor-addition of Fe obviously extends the supercooled liquid region ΔTx. The plastic strain of the Cu44Zr48Al7Fe bulk metallic glass is about 1.5%. The microstructures were examined by transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. It is found that when 1%-2% Fe （mole fraction） were introduced into the CuZrAl alloy matrix, nanoscale phase separation occurs in the as-prepared Cu44Zr48Al7Fe bulk metallic glass.展开更多

The effects of zirconium content on the glass-forming ability （GFA）, thermal properties and mechanical properties were investigated using X-ray diffractometer （XRD）, differential scanning calorimeter （DSC）, and mechanical testing system in compressive and three-point bending modes, respectively. The high-zirconium BMGs show the critical diameters of 3-5 ram, the supercooled liquid region ranging from 70 K to 99 K, and the yield strength of over 1700 MPa. The Zr70Al7（Ni1/3Cu2/3）23 BMG exhibits a large compressive plastic strain up to 21% and a high notch toughness value of 60.6 MPa m1/2. The increase in Zr content results in the decrease in GFA and thermostability, and in the improvement of plasticity under compressive and three-point bending conditions. The superior plasticity of high-zirconium BMGs is at- tributed to their high Poisson＇s ratio and small elastic modulus ratioμl/B.展开更多
