Correlations between critical section thickness and glass-forming ability criteria of Ti-based bulk amorphous alloys

Abstract Correlations between the critical section thickness and the glass-forming ability (GFA) parameters, including the temperature interval of the supercooled liquid region Δ T xg , the reduced glass transition temperature T rg , the stability parameter S and parameters K gl and γ , have been summarized for several Ti-based bulk amorphous alloys. The results show that the indicators T rg and γ are preferred to be the criteria of GFA for Ti-based bulk amorphous alloys.
