Abstract

A Zr33Y27Al15Ni25 amorphous alloy was found to exhibit a two-stage glass transition and crystallization processes because of the insoluble nature between Zr and Y. The first-stage exothermic reaction is due to the precipitation of the nanoscale Y-rich phase from the amorphous matrix and the precipitates cause the suppression of the decrease in viscosity and elasticity in the supercooled liquid region.
