Abstract

Using a newly developed temperature modulated differential scanning calorimetry (TMDSC), glass transition has been detected in several RE-Fe-Al (RE = ND, Pr, Srn and Y) metallic glasses, which can not be observed by a conventional DSC. Our results show that the glass transition occurred together with a small fraction crystallization in the as-spun samples, the final main crystallization transition occurred at higher temperature (over 720K) in these rare-earth based alloys. Large undercooled liquid regions up to 200K at a underlying heating rate of 5K/min have been observed in these glasses. Ic 1999 Materials Research Society.
