In present work, amorphous TiCuNi powders were fabricated by mechanical alloying process. Amorphization and crystallization behaviors of the TiCuNi powders during high-energy ball milling and subsequent microstructure changes were studied by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope. TEM samples were prepared by the focused ion beam technique. The morphology of powders prepared with different milling times was observed by field-emission scanning electron microscope and optical microscope. The powders developed a fine, layered, homogeneous structure with milling times. The crystallization behavior showed that glass transition, , onset crystallization, , and super cooled liquid range were 628, 755 and 127K, respectively. The as-prepared amorphous TiCuNi powders were consolidated by spark plasma sintering process. Full densified TiCuNi samples were successfully produced by the spark plasma sintering process. Crystallization of the MA powders happened during sintering at 733K.

Fe based (FeCSiBPCrMoAl) amorphous powder, which is a composition of iron blast cast slag, were produced by a gas atomization process, and sequently mixed with ductile Cu powder by a mechanical ball milling process. The Fe-based amorphous powders and the Fe-Cu composite powders were compacted by a spark plasma sintering (SPS) process. Densification of the Fe amorphous-Cu composited powders by spark plasma sintering of was occurred through a plastic deformation of the each amorphous powder and Cu phase. The SPS samples milled by AGO-2 under 500 rpm had the best homogeneity of Cu phase and showed the smallest Cu pool size. Micro-Vickers hardness of the as-SPSed specimens was changed with the milling processes.

Fe based (FeCSiBPCrMoAl) amorphous powder, which is a composition of iron blast cast slag, were produced by a gas atomization process, and sequently mixed with ductile Cu powder by a mechanical ball milling process. The experiment results show that the as-prepared Fe amorphous powders less than 90 m in size has a fully amorphous phase and its weight fraction was about 73.7%. The as-atomized amorphous Fe powders had a complete spherical shape with very clean surface. Differential scanning calorimetric results of the as-atomized Fe powders less than 90 m showed that the glass transition, T, onset crystallization, T, and super-cooled liquid range T=T-T were 512, 548 and 36, respectively. Fe amorphous powders were mixed and deformed well with 10 wt.% Cu by using AGO-2 high energy ball mill under 500 rpm.

Fe based () amorphous powder were produced by a gas atomization process, and then ductile Cu powder fabricated by the electric explosion of wire(EEW) were mixed in the liquid (methanol) consecutively. The Fe-based amorphous - nanometallic Cu composite powders were compacted by a spark plasma sintering (SPS) processes. The nano-sized Cu powders of 200 produced by EEW in the methanol were mixed and well coated with the atomized Fe amorphous powders through the simple drying process on the hot plate. The relative density of the compacts obtained by the SPS showed over 98% and its hardness was also found to reach over 1100 Hv.

The hydrogen sorption speeds of amorphous alloy and its crystallized alloys were evaluated at room temperature. amorphous alloy was prepared by ball milling. The hydrogen sorption rate of the partially crystallized alloy was higher than that of amorphous. The enhanced sorption rate of partially crystallized alloy was explained in terms of grain refinement that has been known to promote the diffusion into metallic bulk of the gases. The grain refinement could be obtained by crystallization of amorphous phase resulting in the observed increase in sorption property.

This work is to present a new synthesis of metallic glass (MG)/metallic glass (MG) composites using gas atomization and spark plasma sintering (SPS) processes. The MG powders of (CuA) and (NiA) as atomized consist of fully amorphous phases and present a different thermal behavior; (glass transition temperature) and (crystallization temperature) are 716K and 765K for the Cu base powder, but 836K and 890K for the Ni base ones, respectively. SPS process was used to consolidate the mixture of each amorphous powder, being in weight. The resultant phases were Cu crystalline dispersed NiA matrix composites as well as NiA phase dispersed CuA matrix composites, depending on the SPS temperatures. Effect of the second phases embedded in the MG matrix was discussed on the micro-structure and mechanical properties.

1960년 Au-Si계 합금에서 처음으로 비정질상이 급속 응고법에 의해 보고된 이래/sup 1)/ 지난 40년 간 많은 합금계에서 비정질상이 보고되어졌다. 대표적으로 Fe-, Ni-, Co기 합금 등 많은 합금계에서 비정질상이 보고되었으나, 비정질상의 형성을 위해서는 약 105 K/s이상의 높은 냉각속도를 필요로 하였다. 1980년대 수백 K/s의 낮은 냉각속도 하에서도 비정질상이 형성될 수 있는 다원계 합금(multi-component alloy)이

The Cu55Ti45 system was effectively mechanically-alloyed using a pulverizer. Noncrystallinities of the powders were characterized by TEM, X-ray and DSC. The amorphous powders were consolidated without losing their noncrystallinities. The consolidating conditions keeping a non-crystalline were obtained by building a TTT diagram of the amorphous powders. The microhardness of the crystallite and bulk amorphous alloys are also compared.

자자들은 최근 비고용 Cu-Ta계의 기계적 합금화(Mechanical Alloying) 방법을 이용하여 이계에 있어서 비정질상의 형성에 대한 구조적 확인을 중성자 회절과 EXAFS(Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure)의 실험결과로 부터 얻었다. Cu-Ta계와 같이 혼합 엔탈피(Heat of Mixing: δ Hmix)가 정인계에 있어서 비정질상 형성에 대한 연구는 구조적인 측면 뿐만 아니라. 시료의 전자물성에 대해서도 많은 연구가 되어야만 할 것으로 사료된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 120시간 MA방법으로 제작한 시료에 대하여 초전도 천이온도 및 X선 광전자분광 실험에서 얻은 가전자대 구조의 전자물성을 측정하고, 그 결과로부터 이종원자 Cu와 Ta간의 결합은 화하결합에 의한 생성임을 확인하였는데, 이들 결과로부터 120시간 MA를 행하여 얻어진 시료는 확실하게 비정질 합금임을 알 수 있었다.
