Amorphous transformation of ternary Cu45Zr45Ag10 alloy under microgravity condition

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/ac67c9

Abstract The influences of undercooling rate and cooling rate on the microstructural evolution of ternary Cu₄₅Zr₄₅Ag₁₀ alloy using single-roller melt spinning and drop tube are investigated. The rapidly quenched alloy ribbons achieve a homogeneous glass structure. The microstructure of the droplets transforms from the Cu₁₀Zr₇ dendrites plus (Cu₁₀Zr₇+AgZr) eutectic into Cu₁₀Zr₇ dendrite with the decrease of droplet diameter. As the diameter decreases to 180 μm, the Cu₄₅Zr₄₅Ag₁₀ alloy changes from crystal to amorphous structure, showing that the cooling rate is not the only influence factor and the undercooling play a certain role in the forming of the amorphous alloy at the same time under microgravity condition.
