A deep eutectic point in quaternary Zr–Ti–Ni–Cu system and bulk metallic glass formation near the eutectic point

A study of cooling process in bulk metallic glasses fabrication

“…The properties of the alloy melt were set as typical values of common BMGs prepared by this method. [19][20][21] The simulations were performed in ANSYS using the PLANE77 thermal solid elements. In the water quenching model, the element size was set as 0.5 mm.…”

“…12,[19][20][21] T N was selected as ∼0.8T M . Then two series of data of cooling rate R versus diameter D could be obtained.…”

Effect of Silicon on the Microstructure and Performance of the New Binary Deep Eutectic Ti–Cu–Zr–Ni-Based Filler Metal

“…In order to identify metallic glasses with a higher glass-forming ability, Ti-Cu-based alloy systems with different compositions were designed. The Ti-Cu-Zr-Ni system was known to form amorphous alloys (or metallic glasses) [21]. Many materials scientists established various rules in order to improve the amorphous forming ability of the Ti-Cu-Zr-Ni system [22].…”

“…These researchers demonstrated that the effect of Si was clear on some alloys, but there was no effect of Si on Ti-Cu-Zr-Ni-based alloys. Similarly, a method of "proportionally mixing binary eutectics", also called binary deep eutectic, was reported to increase the glass-forming ability of metallic glasses [21]. According to a report, Yang et al designed a Cu-Ti-Zr-Ni system composition of metallic glasses by proportionally mixing the binary deep eutectic composition and obtained a multi-component alloy that was close to deep eutectics.…”

Amorphization of CuZr Based Alloy Powders by Mechanical Milling

“…Up to date, ternary Cu-Zr-Al and quaternary Cu-Zr-Al-Ni systems have been widely investigated by researchers because of their high glass forming ability and distinguished properties [1][2][3]. Aluminum and nickel have been regarded as useful elements to improve the plasticity, thermals stability and glass forming ability of the CuZr-based BMGs [4,5,6].…”
