“…Along with high corrosion resistance these materials show exceptionally high mechanical hardness and strength when stretched. In some cases their coefficient of thermal expansion is close to null [6][7][8][9][10][11]35]. Amorphous structure is characterized by the absence of any long-range ordering ensuring no crystalline anisotropy, grain boundaries and other structural defects typical of polycrystalline alloys.…”
This work describes the effect of pressure on the release of latent heat of crystallization. It is established that imposition of pressure combined with the cooling rate creates the conditions for formation of metastable structural states, which can be used to enhance and control changes in the properties of metals and alloys.

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.
