Preparation and Characterization of Master Alloys Fe48Cr15Mo14C15B6Y2 Metallic Glasses

Abstract

The purpose of this work is the characterization of a master alloy of metal glass based on iron Fe48Cr15Mo14C15B6Y2. Two types of alloys studied B1 which has been prepared by the use of pure element and the other B2 which has been prepared by the use of raw materials. The thermal and structural properties of the samples are measured by a combination of high temperature differential scanning calorimeter (HTDSC), X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Chemical compositions are checked by energy dispersive spectroscopy analysis.
