With the effect of yttrium, both the crystallization temperature and exothermic peak shifted to higher temperatures, illustrating that the thermal stability could be improved. The addition of Y changed the crystallization process and final crystallization results. Moreover, the crystallites in the amorphous matrix became more homogeneous and smaller. Meanwhile, Y was useful for the passivation of oxygen in chemistry and restrained the negative effect of oxygen. The activation energies of the start of crystallization and peaking were 1.21 and 1.16 eV, respectively, according to the Kissinger equation.展开更多

The most suitable process is that the milling velocity is 600 r/min and the mass ratio of ball to powder is 20:1, so the shortest forming time of the amorphous is about 40 h. The thermal stability of the powders was analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The glass transition temperature, (Tg), onset temperature of crystallization(Tx), width of supercooled liquid region, were determined to be 444.8, 531.1 and 86.3 K, respectively. Contrasting them with the parameters of samples produced by traditional copper-mold casting, it is found that the thermal stability of the former is better than that of the latter. At the same time, the crystallization kinetics of those amorphous powders was researched by Kissinger equation and the apparent activation energy at Tg and Tx was calculated.展开更多

It has been observed thatthe supercooled liquid region decreases with increasing the annealing time under isothermalconditions, indicating that the thermal stability of the amorphous Zr_(70)Cu_(20)Ni_(10) alloydecreases gradually. HRTEM observations reveal that there exist some ordered atomic clusters in theamorphous matrix at the relaxation stage. These ordered atomic clusters can be regarded asprecursors for the precipitation of the crystalline phases in the subsequent crystal-lizationprocess. The reasons resulting in the decrease in thermal stability of the amorphousZr_(70)Cu_(20)Ni_(10) alloy with annealing time are discussed through the Gaussian decomposition forthe radial distribution function of the amorphous Zr_(70)Cu_(20)Ni_(10) alloy.展开更多

The glass-forming ability (GFA),thermal stability and magnetic properties were investigated in the composition range of Fe_(70)Co_8Zr_(7- x )Nd_ x B_(15) ( x =0% to 6%,atom fraction). They exhibit the glass transition and supercooled liquid region before crystallization. The width of supercooled liquid region obtained for the series of Fe_(70)Co_8Zr_(7- x )Nd_ x B_(15) exceeds (40 K,) among which the maximum width for Fe_(70)Co_8Zr_5Nd_2B_(15) amorphous alloy reaches 61 K. Another main attraction is that the selected Fe-based amorphous alloys have good soft magnetic properties. The saturation magnetization ( J _s) is in the range of 1.10 to 1.37 T,and coercive force ( H _c) in the range of 2.28 to 8.15 A·m (-1) for Fe_(70)Co_8Zr_(7- x )Nd_ x B_(15) amorphous alloys. It is found that the saturation magnetization ( J _s) increases with the increment of the relative content of the Nd for the Fe_(70)Co_8Zr_(7- x )Nd_ x B_(15) alloys. The H _c values for the glasses with Nd content of 1%,2% and 3% are below 3 A·m (-1). The research indicates that Fe_(70)Co_8Zr_5Nd_2B_(15) amorphous alloy has good high GFA and good soft magnetic properties,of which the width of supercooled liquid region,J _s,and H _c are 61 K,1.25 T and 2.28 A·m (-1),respectively.展开更多

The microstructure, glass-forming ability, and crystallization behavior of amorphous Al_（72）Ni_8Ti_8Zr_6Nb_3Y_3 powders were investigated by X-ray diffraction（XRD）, transmission electron microscopy（TEM）, and differential scanning calorimetry（DSC）. The isothermal crystallization kinetics was analyzed by the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami equation. In the results, the supercooled liquid region of the amorphous alloy is as high as 81 K, as determined by-non-isothermal DSC curves. The activation energy for crystallization is as high as 312.6 kJ ·mol1 obtained by Kissinger and Ozawa analyses. The values of Avrami exponent（n） imply that the crystallization is dominated by interface-controlled three-dimensional growth in the early stage and the end stage and by diffusion-controlled two- or three-dimensional growth in the middle stage. In addition, the amorphous Al_（72）Ni_8Ti_8Zr_6Nb_3Y_3 powders were sintered under 2 GPa at temperatures of 673 K and 723 K. The results show that the Vickers hardness of the compacted powders is as high as Hv 1215.展开更多
