Abstract
Using a mixed powder of argon gas-atomized Zr 55 Cu 30 Alj o N1 5 metallic glassy alloy powder blended with 10vol% ZrO 2 powder, Zr 55 Cu 30 Al 10 Ni 5 bulk metallic glassy matrix composite was fabricated by a spark plasma sintering process. The structure, thermal stability and mechanical properties of the sintered bulk metallic glassy matrix composite were investigated. The ZrO 2 particles were homogeneously dispersed in the Zr 55 Cu 30 Al 10 Ni 5 glassy matrix. No crystallization of the glassy matrix occurred during the spark plasma sintering process. The crystallization behavior of the sintered composite was similar to that of the metallic glassy powder. The sintered composite specimen exhibited larger plastic ductility than that of the as-cast Zr 55 Cu 30 Al 10 Ni 5 glassy alloy rod specimen. The increase in the plastic ductility is proposed to originate from the structural inhomogeneity caused by the ZrO 2 ceramic particles.
