Influence of ejection temperature on structure and glass transition behavior for Zr-based rapidly quenched disordered alloys　

We examined the influence of ejection liquid temperature (Tel) on the structure, thermal stability and crystallization of ZrAlNiCu ribbons prepared by the melt-spinning technique. The increase in Tel was found to cause the formation of an oxide phase on the ribbon surface, more loose atomic configurations, the absence of glass transition (GT) and supercooled liquid (SL) region, and the rise of crystallization temperature.
