摘要
The bulk metallic glass formation in the Cu-Zr-M ternary systems by alloying of a binary basic Cu6Zr5 cluster was investigated, where M stands for Sn, Mo, Ta, Nb, Ag, Al and Ti. The Cu6Zr5 cluster is a capped Archimedean antiprism that characterizes the local structure of the Cu10Zr7 crystalline phase. This cluster composition almost superposes with Cu-Zr eutectic Cu0.56Zr0.44. A series of alloys along the cluster line (Cu6Zr5)(1-x)M-x were examined for their glass forming abilities. Alloy rods with a diameter of 3 mm were prepared by copper mould suction casting method and analyzed by XRD and thermal analysis. The Cu-Zr based bulk metallic glasses were discovered with minor Nb, Sn, Mo, Ta additions (<= 2at%) and Al, Ti, Ag (8at%<= concentration <= 9at%). The alloying mechanism was discussed in the light of atomic size, cluster-linking structure and electron concentration factors.
