Abstract:This work was focused on enhancement in the plasticity of Fe 25 Co 25 Ni 25 (Si 0.3 B 0.7 ) 25 high entropy bulk metallic glass (HE-BMG) by adding minor Cu (0-1.2, in at.%). It is found that the appropriate addition of Cu can efficiently improve the plasticity of the present HE-BMG while the excessive addition of Cu will deteriorate again the plasticity, and especially, the plastic strain of the present HE-BMG is improved from 0.8% for the Cu-free alloy to 4.7% for the 0.3 at.% Cu-added alloy. The transmission… Show more
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.
