The oxidation behavior of the Cu47Ti34Zr11Ni8 bulk-metallic glass (BMG) was studied over the temperature range of 375 ~ 500 ℃ in dry air. The oxidation kinetics of the glassy alloy generally followed a two-stage parabolic-rate law, and the steady-state parabolic-rate constants (kp values) increased with increasing temperature. The type of scales forming on the alloy is temperature-dependent, and the scales consisted mainly of CuO at 400 ℃, while minor amounts of t-ZrO2, TiO2, and ZrTiO4 formed at 425 ~ 450 ℃ and TiO formed at an even higher temperature of greater than 475 ℃. In addition, the substrate was transformed into a crystalline Cu51Zr14 phase after being oxidized for 24 hrs at 400 ℃, while three crystalline phases of Cu51Zr14, CuTi, and CuTi2 were detected at T ≥ 475 ℃. It was found that the oxidation and phase-transformation behavior of the amorphous alloy was strongly dependent on temperature and duration of time. |
