Low density be-bearing bulk glassy alloys excluding late transition metals

摘要

Low density Be-bearing bulk amorphous structural alloys with more than double the specific strength of conventional titanium alloys and methods of forming bulk articles from such alloys having thicknesses greater than 0.5 mm are provided. The bulk solidifying amorphous alloys described exclude late transition metal components while still exhibiting good glass forming ability, exceptional thermal stability, and high strength.
