EFFECT OF PRESSURE ON CRYSTALLIZATION CHARACTERISTICS AND CRYSTALLIZED MICROSTRUCTURE OF AMORPHOUS Al_(85)Ni_(10)Y_(5) ALLOY

摘要

The crystallization behaviour of amorphous Al_(85)Ni_(10)Y_(5) alloy under high pressure was investigated.Results showed that the amorphous state can be preserved when the alloy is treated under high pressure at temperature below 325°C,the polytropic crystallization takes place when the alloy is treated at 325〜520 °C and 3〜6GPa for 1 min;the crystallizing product is nanometer scale supersaturated fee-Al solid solution particles dispersed in amorphous matrix;under 1 GPa pressure amorphous allloy crystallizes in an eutectic way,the crystallizing products are fee-Al,Al_(3)Y,Al_(3)Ni,AlNiY equilibrium crystalline phases etc.High pressure appreciably changes the crystallization mode and the products,elevates the crystallizing temperature.
