Abstract
Formation of NiTiZrAlCuSi amorphous alloy was investigated by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), differential thermal analysis (DTA) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). When prepared by using the simple copper mould casting, the maximum diameter of glassy rods increased from <0.5 mm for the Ni42Ti25Zr25Al8 alloy to 1 mm for the Ni42Ti20Zr25 Al8Cu5 alloy and to 4 mm for the Ni42Ti20Zr21.2 Al8Cu5Si3.5 alloy. The maximum reduced glass transition temperature Trg(= Tg/T1) of 0.570 and the maximum supercooled liquid region △ H(= Tx-Tg) of 93 K were attained in Ni42Ti20Zr21.5 Al8Cu5Si3.5 and Ni42Ti20Zr20.5 Al8Cu5Si4.5 alloys, respectively. Addition of a proper amount of Si can effectively enhance the glass-forming ability by suppressing the formation of primary Ni(TiZr) and (TiZr) (CuAl)2 phases. The compression test at room temperature showed that the Ti42Ti20Zr21.5 Al8Cu5Si3.5 alloy has a high fracture strength of 2724 MPa.
