Abstract:
A powder metallurgy technology was developed to prepare Ti50Cu23Ni20Sn7 bulk metallic glasses (BMGs). Firstly, amorphous powder was prepared by mechanical alloying (MA) method successfully after being milled for 30 h. Phase transformation of the as-milled powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Morphology of the as-milled amorphous powder was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Onset temperature of glass transformation and onset temperature of crystallization (T-x and T-g) of the as-milled amorphous powder were evaluated by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). Secondly, the as-milled amorphous powder was then consolidated by spark-plasma sintering (SPS) method into a specimen with the shape of cylindrical stick, with a diameter and height of about: 20 and 10 mm, respectively. The SPS experiment was conducted under a pressure of 500 MPa at a heating rate of 40 K/min, sintering and holding for 1 min at the temperature of 763 K. It was confirmed that the as-milled powder is of fully amorphous however the consolidated specimen shows to be an amorphous matrix with partial crystallization. Compressing strength, Young's modulus, micro-hardness, friction and density of the consolidated specimen are about 975 MPa, 121 GPa, 13 GPa, 0.12 and 6599 kg/m(3), respectively. Fractograph of the specimen appears to be shear fracture and very few defects can be seen from the picture of SEM. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
