| 10 | Continuous chemical redistribution following amorphous-to-crystalline structural ordering in a Zr-Cu-Al bulk metallic glass显示文摘Bulk metallic glasses(BMGs)are thermodynamically metastable.As such,crystallization occurs when a BMG is thermally annealed at a temperature above the glass transition temperature.While extensive studies have been performed on the crystallization kinetics of BMGs,most of them have focused on the amorphous-to-crystalline structural ordering,and little attention has been paid to chemical distribution and its relationship with the structural ordering during the crystallization process.In this paper,a new approach,with simultaneous differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)and small angle neutron scatter-ing(SANS)measurements,was applied to study in situ the crystallization of a Zr_(45.5)Cu_(45.5)Al_(9)BMG upon isothermal annealing at a temperature in the supercooled liquid region.Quantitative analysis of the DSC and SANS data showed that the structural evolution during isothermal annealing could be classified into three stages:(Ⅰ)incubation;(Ⅱ)amorphous-to-crystalline structural ordering;(Ⅲ)continuous chemical redistribution.This finding was validated by composition analysis with atom probe tomography(APT),which further identified a transition region formed by expelling Al into the matrix.The transition re-gion,with a composition of(Cu,Al)_(50)Zr_(50),served as an intermediate step facilitating the formation of a thermodynamically stable crystalline phase with a composition of(Cu,Al)_(10)Zr_(7). | Xuelian Wu Si Lan Xiyang Li Ming Yang Zhenduo Wu Xiaoya Wei Haiyan He Muhammad Naeem Jie Zhou Zhaoping Lu Elliot Paul Gilbert Dong Ma Xun-Li Wang | 2022 | Journal of Materials Science & Technology2022，，6： | 0 |
