ABSTRACT
In this study, the effect of non-isothermal partial crystallisation on microstructure, and mechanical and magnetic properties of (Fe0.9Ni0.1)77Mo5P9C7.5B1.5 BMG was investigated. Microstructural characterisations revealed that there was a phase separation in the as-cast BMG. Formation of nano-crystalline phases first occurred in the separated amorphous phase during initial stages of crystallisation process and then continued in the matrix phase. The nanocrystalline/amorphous matrix composite exhibited higher mechanical and magnetic properties compared to those of the as-cast BMG.
