Abstract

An In-situ Mg-based bulk metallic glass (BMG) composite containing 40% volume fraction of Mg-rich crystalline flakes was produced by die casting. During cooling from the melt, the flakes nucleate heterogeneously and subsequently grow with their broad faces parallel to the {0001} plane. This generated a uniform dispersion of randomly-oriented flakes within an amorphous matrix. When compressed uniaxially up to 60% reduction in the supercooled liquid (SCL) region, the flakes in this composite were substantially aligned their broad faces towards the compression plane that generated a strong //ND fibre texture.
