Abstract
In this study, the oxidation behavior of a supercooled Ti16.7Zr16.7Hf16.7Cu16.7Ni16.7Be16.7 HE-BMG was investigated. The mass gain of specimens during oxidation is very limited, and the maximum value is lower than 0.08â¯Ãâ¯10â2â¯g/cm2 after two hours of insulation. With the insulation duration prolonging, the mass gain decreases, indicating that the oxides formed are not stable and could decompose after long-term heating. Meanwhile, the oxidation kinetics doesn't follow the parabolic rate law, indicating that it is not a diffusion-controlled process. Even for specimens oxidized at 713â¯K for 120â¯min, they are still fully amorphous. No surface precipitates, as well as continuous oxide scale structures, are formed even after oxidation for 120â¯min at 753â¯K. Therefore, it is indicated that this HE-BMG has strong thermal stability and oxidation resistance, which is much promising for thermoplastic forming.
