Glass forming ability and mechanical properties of the NiZrTiSi amorphous alloys modified with Al, Cu and Nb additions

Influence of outphase Cu50Ti50 amorphous alloy addition on microstructural evolution of mechanically alloyed Zr66.7Ni33.3 amorphous alloy

“…Although the research work about microalloying has received an extensive attention, the additions are mainly selected as single metalloid [1][2][3][4] or metal elements [5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. To date, few reports are available on the effects of outphase amorphous alloy additions.…”

Microstructure and properties of cold consolidated amorphous ribbons from (NiCu)ZrTiAlSi alloys

“…Additions of Cu promote dendritic crystallization, causing the alloys to be potential amorphous matrix composites [5]. The Al addition, up to 6 at% lowers the temperature of crystallization [6] and increases the ductility of the amorphous phase [7]. The method of high pressure torsion (HPT) was originally invented for fabrication of homogenous nanostructures in bulk materials, quite often revealing also extraordinary phases, mechanical and magnetic properties [8].…”

Investigation of precipitation phases in as-cast wedge ingot of bulk amorphous Zr56.6Cu17.3Ni12.5Al9.6Ti4 alloy

“…Much work has been done on design [3], formation [4][5][6][7][8][9][10], mechanical properties [11][12][13][14], stability, and crystallization [15][16][17] of BMGs very recently. However, the glass forming ability (GFA) of these glassy alloy systems is still lacking except for some noble-metalbased and some beryllium-containing Zr-based alloys [1,2].…”
