Abstract
Effects of adding niobium (Nb) on the glass-forming ability and mechanical properties of bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) ((Zr 40Ti 40Ni 20) 72Be 28) 100- xNb x (at.%, x = 0, 3, 6, 9, 12) were studied by taking the (Zr 40Ti 40Ni 20) 72Be 28 BMGs alloy system as a research object. Through X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) tests, addition of appropriate amounts of Nb first weakens, then enhances the glass-forming ability (GFA) of the alloy system and it improves the thermal stability of the alloys. Mechanical tests show that addition of Nb enhances the room-temperature plasticity of the alloys. When the Nb content is 3 at.%, the compression deformation reaches 29.7%, indicating an increase of 258% compared with that of the initial system. The new Zr-Ti-Ni-Be-Nb system exhibits great potential for applications in engineering structural materials.
