摘要
The effect of various casting parameters and thermophysical properties of bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) on critical section size, defined as the maximum casting size that generates a through-section amorphous alloy, has been analyzed using a simple heat-transfer model. It was found that the interfacial heat transfer between the mold and the casting has a strong influence on the critical section thickness of a BMG. It is argued herein that the critical cooling rate rather than the critical casting size is a more robust indicator of glass-forming ability (GFA). Further, with respect to the critical cooling rate and heat-transfer effects during casting, a distinct difference was found between the critical casting thickness in rectangular-shaped castings and the critical casting diameter in rod-shaped castings, and a relationship was derived for relating these parameters.
