The results show that two exothermal peaks are observed when the alloy is heated to 500?℃, one peak results dominantly from the formation of Ti 2Ni ( α phase transition), the other peak is mainly due to the formation of Zr 2Cu ( β phase transition). At the beginning of the crystallization, the activation energy of the α phase is smaller, and it increases with increasing crystallized fraction ( x c). When x c increases to 90%, the crystallization activation energy shows the largest value (220?kJ/mol). The crystallization activation energy of the β phase remains about 227?kJ/mol, as it’s crystallized fraction is below 60%, and then it increases with increasing crystallized fraction, and shows the largest activation energy of 257?kJ/mol, as the x c is 65%.展开更多

In addition, the diffusion coefficient of the medium size atom Fe in the BMG Vit1 was calculated by using the Stokes-Einstein relation. The temperature dependence of both viscosity and diffusion coefficient of the atom Fe, could also be well fitted by two different Arrhenius equations at temperatures below and above the glass transition temperature. In the glass state, the effects of heating rate on viscosity and diffusivity were significant due to the structure relaxation. Besides, it was indicated that the linear plots between lnD0 and ED for above and below glass transition are just the same. The results suggest that the intrinsic diffusion of medium size atoms in BMGs, above and below glass transition, is possibly collective hopping processes.展开更多

It is found that after the ZrTiCuNiBe BMG sample was annealed under high pressure, the mechanical properties were improved. Moreover, the BMG with relaxed structure exhibits markedly different acoustic properties. These results are attributed to the fact that relaxation under high-pressure results in a microstructural transformation in the BMG.展开更多

The compression test was carried out on a Gleebe-3200 machine at 345 and 375°C, respectively, in the supercooled liquid region. It is shown that decreasing the compressive rate and increasing temperature have a similar influence trend on the compressive behavior of the bulk amorphous alloy. Room and low temperature tensile strengths were tested on the Instron materials testing system. At low temperature, the tensile strength decreased with decreasing of the testing temperature. Hardness measurement indicated that below the glass transition temperature, the hardness decreased with increasing of the annealing temperature and duration time. It, however, increased when the annealing treatment was performed above the glass transition temperature.展开更多
