Chapter 161 Amorphous, quasicrystalline and nanocrystalline alloys in Al- and Mg-based systems

摘要: Publisher Summary This chapter summarizes the recent progress made on amorphous and quasicrystalline alloys in Al- Mg-based systems containing R elements. Amorphous Au-Si system were first synthesized by liquid quenching. A great number of have been prepared order noble-metal-, transition-metal-, refractory-metal- rare-earth-metal-based systems. Thus, amorphization has achieved engineeringly important alloy Fe, Co, Ni, Cu or Ti as a main component these used commercially because their good mechanical, physical chemical properties. In development new systems, dissolution rare earth (R) elements is recognized to play dominant role formation phase well appearance interesting properties alloys.
