Abstract

Bulk glassy Ni-based alloys with high fracture strength exceeding 2700 MPa were prepared in Ni60Nb40−x−yTix Zry system by copper mold casting. The glassy alloys with distinct glass transition were obtained in the wide composition range from 0 to 35%Ti and 0 to 30%Zr and the largest supercooled liquid region before crystallization was 76 K for Ni60Nb15Ti10Zr15. The maximum diameter was 2 mm for Ni60Nb20Ti15Zr5 and the glass transition temperature (Tg), crystallization temperature (Tx) and reduced glass transition temperature (Tg/Tl) of the bulk glassy alloy were 841 K, 898 K and 0.61, respectively. The Young’s modulus (E), compressive fracture strength (σc,f) and compressive fracture elongation (ec,f) were 156 GPa, 2770 MPa and 2.4%, respectively, for the bulk alloy. There is a tendency for fracture strength to increase with increasing E , Tg and liquidus temperature (Tl). It is therefore interpreted that the high strength is due to strong bonding nature among the constituent elements.
