It has been well documented that the maximum thickness of as-cast glassy samples attainable through conventional metallurgical routes is the decisive criteria for measuring the glass-forming ability GFA of bulk metallic glasses BMGs. Here we report the exceptionally high GFA of an FeCoCrMoCBY alloy which can be fabricated in the form of glassy rods with a maximum sample thickness of at least 16 mm. It is demonstrated that, by substituting Fe with a proper amount of Co in a previously reported Fe-based BMG alloy, the glass formation of the resultant new alloy can be extensively favored both thermodynamically and kinetically. The new ferrous BMG alloy also exhibits a high fracture strength of 3500 MPa and Vickers hardness of 1253 kg mm−2.

摘要

It has been well documented that the maximum thickness of as-cast glassy samples attainable through conventional metallurgical routes is the decisive criteria for measuring the glass-forming ability GFA of bulk metallic glasses BMGs. Here we report the exceptionally high GFA of an FeCoCrMoCBY alloy which can be fabricated in the form of glassy rods with a maximum sample thickness of at least 16 mm. It is demonstrated that, by substituting Fe with a proper amount of Co in a previously reported Fe-based BMG alloy, the glass formation of the resultant new alloy can be extensively favored both thermodynamically and kinetically. The new ferrous BMG alloy also exhibits a high fracture strength of 3500 MPa and Vickers hardness of 1253 kg mm−2.
