Abstract

The effect of C substitution on the glass forming ability (GFA) and soft magnetic properties of Fe-based bulk metallic glasses (BMG) Fe79.4-xCxSi3.5B5.1P8.9Mo3Mn0.1(x = 4.2, 5.2, and 7.0) alloys have been investigated. It is revealed that fully glassy alloy rods with diameters up to 4 mm can be prepared by conventional copper mold casting method even using the low-cost industrial Fe-P master alloy. Properly substituting of Fe by C gives rise to an enhancement of GFA. Moreover, all the samples exhibit good soft magnetic properties with high saturation magnetization up to 1.16 T and low coercivity of 204 A/m.
