摘 要:The glass forming ability (GFA) and thermodynamic properties of the La-AI-Cu-Co alloy system were investigated, and novel La-AI-Cu-Co bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) with a minimum critical diameter of 8 mm were fabricated. The differing GFAs were examined from a thermodynamic viewpoint. The GFA of the La-A1-Cu-Co alloys was well-correlated with the supercooled liq- uid region, ATx, and the parameter, 7; but not with the reduced glass transition temperature, Trg. In addition, the La62Al14Cu14Co8 BMG exhibited a high GFA, low glass transition temperature of 412 K, and broad supercooled liquid region of 70 K. These novel BMGs, which were fabricated from low-cost raw materials, had the potential to be used in various applications. The GFA of the pre- sent alloys exhibited a dependence on the relative number of AlqEo and AI-Cu atomic pairs, i.e., on the AI:Co and AI:Cu ratios, which were -2.3 and 0.85, respectively.
