Investigation of Mechanical Properties and Plastic Deformation Behavior of (Ti45Cu40Zr10Ni5)100−xAlx Metallic Glasses by Nanoindentation

The effect of Al addition on mechanical properties and plastic deformation behavior of (Ti45Cu40Zr10Ni5)100−xAlx (x = 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8) amorphous alloy ribbons have been investigated by nanoindentation. The hardness and elastic modulus do not simply increase with the increase of Al content. The allo...
