Formation and mechanical properties of Cu-Zr-Al-Sn bulk metallic glasses were investigated. The glass-forming ability of Cu 50 Zr 50 alloy is significantly improved with addition of Al, and the critical diameter for glass formation increases from 2 to 7 mm for
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
