Enhancement of strength-plasticity synergy in a graphene metallic glass composite
Source abstract
Abstract
Metallic glass (MG) shows great potential for a wide range of functional and structural applications. However, it remains a challenge to enhance the ductility of metallic glasses without compromising their strength during development. A composite of bulk metallic glass/graphene (BMG/C (n)) was prepared using the suction casting method in argon atmosphere, with a nominal composition of (Zr 60Ni 20Al 20) 100-x(C (n)) x (x = 5,10,15). The results indicate that the graphene well dispersed in the BMG matrix without any other intermetallic compounds present. Mechanical property testing reveals a significant increase in both plasticity and hardness with increasing graphene content, while maintaining high fracture strength of the BMG matrix.
