Structural evolution of metallic glasses during annealing through in-situ Synchrotron X-ray diffraction
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work we study the structural evolution of Al and Fe based metallic glass compositions. The samples were obtained as ribbons by melt-spinning, their glass stability and crystallization were analyzed by calorimetry and dilatometry, structural changes were followed by in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction during annealing throughout glass transition and crystallization. The synchrotron results are compared with calorimetric and dilatometric measurements and the structural changes occurred during annealing are determined and described for each alloy.

Structural study of conventional and bulk metallic glasses during annealing
Metallic glasses with conventional glass-forming ability (Al-Fe-Nd, Fe-Zr-B, Fe-B-Nb compositions) and bulk metallic glasses (Ca-Mg-Cu compositions) were studied by synchrotron X-ray diffraction during annealing throughout glass transition and crystallization temperatures. The analysis of the first diffraction peak position during the annealing process allowed us to follow the free volume chang...
متن کاملPseudo-binary phase diagram for Zr-based in situ phase composites
The pseudo-binary (quasi-equilibrium) phase diagram for Zr-based bulk metallic glasses with crystalline in situ precipitates ( phase) has been constructed from high-temperature phase information and chemical composition analysis. The phase evolution was detected in situ by high-energy synchrotron x-ray diffraction followed by Rietveld analysis of the data for volume fraction estimation. The pha...
متن کاملDeformation in Metallic Glasses Studied by Synchrotron X-Ray Diffraction
High mechanical strength is one of the superior properties of metallic glasses which render them promising as a structural material. However, understanding the process of mechanical deformation in strongly disordered matter, such as metallic glass, is exceedingly difficult because even an effort to describe the structure qualitatively is hampered by the absence of crystalline periodicity. In sp...
متن کاملIn situ analysis of elemental depth distributions in thin films by combined evaluation of synchrotron x-ray fluorescence and diffraction
In this work we present a method for the in situ analysis of elemental depth distributions in thin films using a combined evaluation of synchrotron x-ray fluorescence and energy-dispersive x-ray diffraction signals. We recorded diffraction and fluorescence signals simultaneously during the reactive annealing of thin films. By means of the observed diffraction signals, the time evolution of phas...
متن کاملAtomic structure of Cu–Zr–Ti metallic glasses subjected to high temperature annealing
An influence of high temperature annealing process (before crystallization) on the atomic structure of two different as-prepared ribbon Cu–Zr–Ti metallic glasses (Cu60Zr20Ti20 and Cu55Zr16Ti29, at. %) was experimentally studied by means of differential scanning calorimetry and in situ hard X-ray diffraction. Results of our experiments prove different atomic structure and behaviour of the glasse...
