Abstract We report the study of thermal properties in Zr-Al-Cu-Ni multi-components amorphous alloys by adding boron and silicon. According to the results of the experiments, the Zr60Al7.5Cu17.5Ni10B1Si4
amorphous alloy ribbons with the highest GFA index value) and the value is 0.42; the maximum supercooled liquid region (Tx) is about 85 K for the Zr60Al7.5Cu17.5Ni10B1Si4 amorphous alloy ribbons.
For the isothermal analyses or non-isothermal analyses, the Avrami index (n value) is not constant, and the Zr60Al7.5Cu17.5Ni10B1Si4amorphous alloy ribbons with the largest activation energy, which is
more than 300 kJ/mol.
Experimental Procedures
The Chemical compositions of the alloys for this study were Zr65-X-YAl7.5Cu17.5Ni10BXSiY, X
varies from 1 to 2 and Y varies from 1 to 4 by an interval of 1. The pre-alloyed ingots were prepared by arc melting of pure elements, such as zirconium(99.8 wt.% purity), aluminum (99. wt.% purity), nickel(99.5 wt.% purity), copper (99.9 wt.% purity), boron (99.5 wt.% purity), and silicon (99.999 wt.% purity), in an argon atmosphere. The ribbon samples of about about 80 to 100 m in thickness and 5 mm in width were prepare by a single roller melt-spinning technique in an argon atmosphere. The as-quench structure was examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), and the thermal properties was analyzed by differential scanning calorimeter(DSC). There are two different heating ways for the analysis of thermal properties, as shown in Fig. 1.
