ABSTRACTRapidly solidified ribbons of Fe67Ti13P(20-x)Bx (x= 0, 7, 20 a/o) and Fe(85-y)Ti l5Py (y=5, 10 a/o) alloys were produced by melt spinning, and their structure and anodic polarization behavior were examined by x-ray diffraction and potentio-dynamic polarization measurements in deaerated 1 N H2SO4, respectively. The only alloy that developed an amorphous structure on rapid solidification, Fe67Ti13B20, exhibited poor corrosion resistance, whereas crystalline alloys with 10 a/o or more P exhibited a tendency to passivate during anodic polarization. Substituting Cr for Ti led to significant improvement in corrosion resistance and promoted development of glassy structures in Fe67(TiCr)13P13B7 compositions. No such improvements were observed when Cu was substituted for Ti. It is concluded that alloy composition is more important than degree of crystallinity in determining corrosion resistance.

Abstract The aim of the present work was to plan and carry out an experiment consisting of amorphization of industrial magnesium alloy WE 43 (Mg - 4 Y - 3 RE - 0.5 Zr) modified by the copper addition. Investigated alloy modified with 20% of copper was rapidly quenched with the use of melt spinning technique. The effects of cooling rate on the structure and properties of the obtained material were extensively analyzed. The structure and phase analysis of samples were examined using X-ray diffraction method (XRD) while the thermal stability of the samples was determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Microstructure observations were also conducted. The microhardness tests (HV0.02) and corrosion resistance tests were carried out to investigate the properties of the material. Corrosion resistance measurements were held using a typical three-electrode system. As the result of the research, the effect of cooling rate on microstructure and properties of investigated alloy was determined.

Abstract Alloys of FeNiSiB soft magnetic materials containing variable Fe and Ni contents (wt.%) have been produced by melt spinning method, a kind of rapid solidification technique. The magnetic and structural properties of FeNiSiB alloys with soft magnetic properties were investigated by increasing the Fe ratio. X-ray diffraction analysis and SEM images shows that the produced alloy ribbons generally have an amorphous structure, together with also partially nanocrystalline regions. It was observed that the structure became much more amorphous together with increasing Fe content in the composition. Among the alloy ribbons, the highest saturation magnetization was obtained as 0.6 emu/g in the specimen with 50 wt.% Fe. In addition, the highest Curie temperature was observed in the sample containing 46 wt.% Fe.

AbstractA series of (NixFeyAlz)0.9983B0.0017 (where x=58-60, y=13-15 and z=26-28, in at%) alloys have been rapidly solidified by - melt spinning. The ribbons have been characterized by HREM, DSC, X-ray diffraction and recoverable strain measurements. The as-cast alloys exhibit excellent bend ductility (in contrast to B2 type alloys conventionally cast) and a wide range of transformation temperatures: Ms=244-466 K, Mf=200-395K, As=236-427K and Af=262-526K. X-ray diffraction shows the presence of β (NiAl), β′ (NiAl), γ (Ni3Al), γ′ (Ni3A1), Ni and other phases such as Fe3Al, FeAl, FeNi and Al5Fe2. It is the β- β′ diffusionless transformation which is responsible for the shape memory effect. The results obtained by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) show two different types of crystalline grains. In one case, the grains have a high density of twins which are the fingerprints of the martensite transformation. However, other areas in the specimen show crystalline grains with very poor image contrast due to the transformation from β′ -β. There are also sections in the specimens with domains of both crystalline sgrains in coexistance. Both crystalline grains have large amounts of precipitates. In the β′ (NiAl) phase the size of the precipitates range fron lnm to lOnm. In the γ (Ni3Al) phase large precipitates (20nm) can be found. Some of them display pentagonal shapes which resemble the image contrast obtained in the TEM for small icosahedral metallic particles. Experimental evidence is also obtained on different habit or twin planes. HREM images from the twinned areas suggest diferent kinds of atomic structures for the parent and martensite crystalline sections. These results give some insights into the nature of the martensite transformation.

ABSTRACTRapidly solidified Al containing up to to 15 wt.% Mn was prepared by melt spinning. The alloys were examined by TEM and X-ray diffraction in the as-spun condition and after annealing at 450°C. Four precipitate phases were detected, and their growth kinetics were correlated to subgrain structures in the Al matrix.

Considerable interest has been shown recently in the hard magnetic properties of Co-Zr, Co-Zr-B, and Co-Hf-B alloys, but as yet no detailed microstructural studies have been published. The Co-Zr phase diagram seems to be reasonably well known, although the crystal structure of the Co11Zr2 phase is only partially determined. This paper will report on some preliminary studies of rapidly solidified Co-Zr-B-Si and Co-Hf-B-Si alloys and binary Co-Zr alloys.All specimens used in this study were prepared by melt spinning. Specific alloys were heat treated at temperatures from 650 to 900°C. TEM specimens were prepared from ribbon material by ion milling.X-ray diffraction studies of these alloys all showed a characteristic broad peak centered around d = 0.205nm. Although it was obvious that this was a complex peak, attempts to deconvolute it were unsuccessful. SAD patterns revealed that major phases in the alloys were very heavily faulted, thus giving rise to the very confusing X-ray diffraction patterns.

The alloys with different compositions in the Al-rich corner of the Al-Co-Y ternary system were prepared by conventional casting and further processed by melt-spinning technique. The microstructure and the thermal behavior of the alloys were analyzed by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and differential thermal analysis (DTA). It was found that only rapidly solidified Al85Co7Y8alloy exhibited the best glass forming ability (GFA) and a fully amorphous structure. Besides, Al85Co13Y2and Al85Co2Y13alloy ribbons were fully crystalline, whereas Al85Co10Y5and Al85Co5Y10alloy ribbons consisted of some crystalline phases within an amorphous matrix. The SEM results showed the same trend that the crystalline phase fraction decreases with the approaching into best glass former. From DSC results, only Al85Co7Y8amorphous alloy exhibited a glass transition temperature (Tg) at 569 K, and its supercooled liquid region (ΔTx=Tx−Tg) was found to be 17 K. Moreover, other calculated GFA parameters for this alloy system were also discussed.

ABSTRACTIn this· investigation we have systematically studied the brittleness and the atomic structure in an Fe(SiBC) alloy. Different amounts of hydrogen have been dissolved in the alloy. It has then been studied at different cooling rates.Hydrogen gas of different partial pressures was dissolved into the melt. The alloy was then rapidly quenched by a chill block melt spinning method. The cooling rates were changed by changing the velocity on the chilling roll. The brittleness and the atomic structure were examined by bending tests and x-ray diffraction.X-ray diffractions showed that the ribbons were amorphous when the cooling rate was sufficient. Amorphous ribbons without any hydrogen were ductile, crystalline ribbons of this alloy were brittle. The ribbons with dissolved hydrogen and amorphous structure were brittle even at small amounts of hydrogen. At the highest cooling rates the ribbons with low hydrogen content were ductile. There seems to be a connection between the hydrogen content and the amorphous ribbons ductility. The hydrogen content only has a slight influence to amorphous structure.

ABSTRACTFe-Al-X alloys (X = Cr, Mo) in the composition range 50 to 80 at. % Fe, 0 to 20 at. % X were rapidly solidified by chill-block melt-spinning. As-spun and heat treated ribbons were characterised by optical and electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Strengthening mechanisms were identified using microhardness measurements. Tensile fracture surfaces of ribbons reveal ductile to cleavage to intergranular fracture transitions with increasing Al-content. An increasing preponderance of cleavage fracture with increasing ternary substitution for Fe was observed.

The goal of this paper is to present the influence of temperature variation and iron substitution with Co on the structure and electrical properties of amorphous Fe75-xCoxCr1B7Si17 alloys (where x=1, 4, 7, and 10 at.%), obtained by melt-spinning technique. The electrical resistivity of the samples was measured by using a usual four-probe method from -160°C to 750°C. The electrical resistivity was also measured at room temperature for the amorphous Fe75-xCoxCr1B7Si17 ribbons annealed at various temperatures for different holding time. The annealed samples were also investigated by Vickers microhardness test. The amorphous structure of tested materials was examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Mossbauer spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) methods. Experimental results confirmed the utility of applied investigation methods and the influence of the Co content and annealing process on the crystallization, structure and electrical properties of examined amorphous alloys.
