Abstract

In this work, the variation of the glass-forming ability (GFA) in Fe-Co-Cr-Mo-C-B-Y alloy system with Co addition has been investigated from the viewpoints of non-isothermal viscosity and free volume. The best GFA for the alloy containing 7% Co is found to closely relate with its highest viscosity, and the minimum sizes and lowest concentrations of the intermediate and largest open volumes. The results may provide more insights into the formation mechanism of metallic glasses.
