Here, it is demonstrated that the embrittled Fe-based MG can be reductilized and the coercivity can be further lowered through the rejuvenation of memory effect. The synchronous improvement in the plasticity and soft magnetic properties is attributed to the combination effects of releasing much residual stress, decreasing the magnetic anisotropy, and homogenizing the glasses during the rejuvenation process. The current work opens a new perspective to improve the properties of MGs by utilizing the memory effect and holds promising commercial application potential.展开更多

The microstructure and the phase aggregate were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffractometry, respectively. Microhardness, wear resistance and corrosion behavior were assessed using a Vickers microhardness tester, a ball-on-disk wear testing machine and the electrochemical measurement method, respectively. Microstructural studies show that the coatings possess a densely layered structure with the porosity less than 2.1%. The tribological behavior of the coatings examined under dry conditions shows that their relative wear resistance is five times higher than that of the substrate material. Both adhesive wear and abrasive wear contribute to the friction, but the former is the dominant wear mechanism of the metallic glass coatings. The coatings exhibit low passive current density and extremely wide passive region in 3.5% NaCl solution, thus indicating excellent corrosion resistance.展开更多

The results show that the structure is an essential factor that affects degradation, andadded non-metallic elements help optimize the structure. The amorphous and balled-milled crystalline Fe7oSiloB2o hascomparative degradation efficiencies to MO with tl/2 values of 6.9 and 7.0 min, respectively. Increasing the boron contentcan create a favorable structure and promote degradation. The ball-milled crystalline Fe70B30 and Fe43.64B56.36 powdershave relatively short tl/2 values of 5.2 and 3.3 rain, respectively. The excellent properties are mainly attributed to theirheterogeneous structure with boron-doped active sites in ZVI. Composition segregation in the nanoscale range in anamorphous FeSiB alloy and small boron particles in the microscale range embedded in large iron particles prepared by ball-milling, both constitute effective galvanic cells that promote iron electron loss and therefore decompose organic chemicals.These findings may provide a new, highly efficient, low-cost commercial method for azo dye wastewater treatment usingZVI.展开更多

The results...The lap joints of Fe-based metallic glass ribbons were carried by resistance spot welding, and the microstructures of spot welds were investigated by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The results indicated that the perfect formations of joints without typical defects such as spatter were achieved with optimized parameters. Except for little nano-particle Fe2B, no other crystalline particle was detected by TEM, revealing that the most microstructure in spot weld remains amorphous. The maximum tensile-shearing force was 45.0 N with the optimized parameters of 1 kA weld current, 30 N electrode force and 0.02 ms weld time. The spot weld failed as pullout failure mode propagating along the interface of nugget zone. The study demonstrates that resistance spot welding is an effective and practical welding process for Fe-based metallic glass.展开更多

The basic ternary compositions in the Fe-B-Si system were determined by the intersection points of two cluster lines, namely, Fe-B cluster to Si and Fe-Si cluster to B. 3at% -4at% Nb was added to the quaternary Fe-B-Si-Nb alloy. The casting experiments revealed that good glass-forming ability （GFA） occurred at the （Fe73.4Si8.2B18.4）96Nb4 composition, and 3-mm diameter BMG samples were made. The glass transition temperature （Tg）, crystallization temperature （Tx）, and supercooled liquid region （△Tx=Tx-Tg） of this BMG were measured to be 866, 889, and 23 K, respectively. The BMG shows a high Vickers hardness of about Hv 1164, a Young＇s modulus of 180 GPa, and a good corrosion resistance in the solutions of 1 mol/L HCl and 3wt% NaCl.展开更多

In this paper, a Fe-based metallic glass(MG) was demonstrated as a new type of electrocatalyst to effectively and economically degrade an azo dye. In comparison to other typical electrodes, Fe-based MG electrodes exhibit a minimized degradation time, and the specific energy is 4-6 orders of magnitude lower than that of dimensionally stable anode(DSA), metal-like boron-doped diamond(BDD) and other electrodes. As sacrificial electrode materials, Fe-based MGs have less specific electrode mass consumption than iron electrodes. The use of Fe-based MGs will promote the practical application of electrochemical technology and the use of MGs as functional materials.展开更多

An industrial Fe–B alloy was used as the raw material, and a series of Fe-based BMGs were synthesized. In BMGs with the Mo contents of approximately 1at%–2at%, the cast alloy reached a critical diameter of 6 mm. The hardness and fracture strength also reached their maximum values in this alloy system. However, the anticorrosion and magnetic properties of the BMGs were not substantially improved by the addition of Mo. The low cost, good GFA, high hardness, and high fracture strength of the Fe-based BMGs developed in this work suggest that they are potential candidates for commercial applications.展开更多

This composite sample was developed by introduction of bcc a-Fe dendrites as reinforcing phase. The corrosion behavior of this composite was compared to its monolithic counterpart and other Fe-based alloys such as 304L and 2304L stainless steels. The corrosion resistance of MGMCs in H2SO4 solution shows inferior to that of other Fe-based alloys. Experiments suggest that Fe-BMGs samples possess better corrosion resistance property than that of Fe-MGMCs. The possible underlying reasons can be the inhomogeneity induced by the precipitation of a-Fe dendrites in the MGMCs.展开更多

文摘The cooling rate during vitrification is critical for determining the mechanical properties of metallic glasses.However,the structural origin of the cooling rate effect on mechanical behaviors is unclear.In this work,a systematical investigation of the cooling rate effect on the deformation mode,shear band nucleation,and nanoscale heterogeneous structure was conducted in three Fe-based metallic glasses.The brittle to ductile deformation transition was observed when increasing the cooling rate.Meanwhile,the governing shear band nucleation site from high load site to low load site appears the synchronous tran-sition.By studying the corresponding nanoscale heterogeneous structure,it was found that nanoscale viscoelastic transition from solid-like to liquid-like as increasing cooling rate enables ductile deformation.The current work not only reveals the nanoscale structural origin of the cooling rate effect on the de-formation behaviors,but also provides a new route to design ductile metallic glasses by freezing more nanoscale liquid-like regions during cooling.

文摘Sodium-ion batteries(SIBs)have the advantages of environmental friendliness,cost-effectiveness,and high energy density,which are considered one of the most promising candidates for lithium-ion batteries(LIBs).The cathode materials influence the cost and energy output of SIBs.Therefore,the development of advanced cathode materials is crucial for the practical application of SIBs.Among various cathode materials,layered transition metal oxides(LTMOs)have received widespread attention owing to their straightforward preparation,abundant availability,and cost-competitiveness.Notably,layered Fe-based oxide cathodes are deemed to be one of the most promising candidates for the lowest price and easy-to-improve performance.Nevertheless,the challenges such as severe phase transitions,sluggish diffusion kinetics and interfacial degradation pose significant hurdles in achieving high-performance cathodes for SIBs.This review first briefly outlines the classification of layered structures and the working principle of layered oxides.Then,recent advances in modification strategies employed to address current issues with layered iron-based oxide cathodes are systematically reviewed,including ion doping,biphasic engineering and surface modification.Furthermore,the review not only outlines the prospects and development directions for layered Fe-based oxide cathodes but also provides novel insights and directions for future research endeavors for SIBs.

文摘A metallic glass coating with the composition of Fe51.33Cr14.9Mo25.67Y3.4C3.44B1.26 （mole fraction, %） on the Q235 stainless steel was developed by the detonation gun （D-gun） spraying process. The microstructure and the phase aggregate were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffractometry, respectively. Microhardness, wear resistance and corrosion behavior were assessed using a Vickers microhardness tester, a ball-on-disk wear testing machine and the electrochemical measurement method, respectively. Microstructural studies show that the coatings possess a densely layered structure with the porosity less than 2.1%. The tribological behavior of the coatings examined under dry conditions shows that their relative wear resistance is five times higher than that of the substrate material. Both adhesive wear and abrasive wear contribute to the friction, but the former is the dominant wear mechanism of the metallic glass coatings. The coatings exhibit low passive current density and extremely wide passive region in 3.5% NaCl solution, thus indicating excellent corrosion resistance.

文摘The room temperature compressive plasticity of Fe75MosP10Cs.3B1.7 bulk metallic glass （BMG） was improved from 0.5% to 1.8% by increasing the sample diameter from 1.5 mm to 2.0 mm. With increasing the sample diameter to 2.0 mm, a heterogeneous microstructure with in-situ formed a-Fe dendrite sparsely distributed in the amorphous matrix can be attained. This heterogeneous mierostructure is conceived to be highly responsible for the enhanced global plasticity in this marginal Fe-based BMG.

文摘In this study, the degradation efficiencies of zero-valent iron （ZVI） powders with different structures and components wereevaluated for methyl orange （MO）. The results show that the structure is an essential factor that affects degradation, andadded non-metallic elements help optimize the structure. The amorphous and balled-milled crystalline Fe7oSiloB2o hascomparative degradation efficiencies to MO with tl/2 values of 6.9 and 7.0 min, respectively. Increasing the boron contentcan create a favorable structure and promote degradation. The ball-milled crystalline Fe70B30 and Fe43.64B56.36 powdershave relatively short tl/2 values of 5.2 and 3.3 rain, respectively. The excellent properties are mainly attributed to theirheterogeneous structure with boron-doped active sites in ZVI. Composition segregation in the nanoscale range in anamorphous FeSiB alloy and small boron particles in the microscale range embedded in large iron particles prepared by ball-milling, both constitute effective galvanic cells that promote iron electron loss and therefore decompose organic chemicals.These findings may provide a new, highly efficient, low-cost commercial method for azo dye wastewater treatment usingZVI.

文摘The lap joints of Fe-based metallic glass ribbons were carried by resistance spot welding, and the microstructures of spot welds were investigated by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The results indicated that the perfect formations of joints without typical defects such as spatter were achieved with optimized parameters. Except for little nano-particle Fe2B, no other crystalline particle was detected by TEM, revealing that the most microstructure in spot weld remains amorphous. The maximum tensile-shearing force was 45.0 N with the optimized parameters of 1 kA weld current, 30 N electrode force and 0.02 ms weld time. The spot weld failed as pullout failure mode propagating along the interface of nugget zone. The study demonstrates that resistance spot welding is an effective and practical welding process for Fe-based metallic glass.

文摘Bulk metallic glass （BMG） formation was explored in the Fe-B-Si-Nb alloy system though combined use of the atomic cluster line approach and the minor alloying strategy. The basic ternary compositions in the Fe-B-Si system were determined by the intersection points of two cluster lines, namely, Fe-B cluster to Si and Fe-Si cluster to B. 3at% -4at% Nb was added to the quaternary Fe-B-Si-Nb alloy. The casting experiments revealed that good glass-forming ability （GFA） occurred at the （Fe73.4Si8.2B18.4）96Nb4 composition, and 3-mm diameter BMG samples were made. The glass transition temperature （Tg）, crystallization temperature （Tx）, and supercooled liquid region （△Tx=Tx-Tg） of this BMG were measured to be 866, 889, and 23 K, respectively. The BMG shows a high Vickers hardness of about Hv 1164, a Young＇s modulus of 180 GPa, and a good corrosion resistance in the solutions of 1 mol/L HCl and 3wt% NaCl.

文摘Excessive consumption of electrical energy has hampered the widespread application of electrochemical technology for degradation of various contaminants. In this paper, a Fe-based metallic glass(MG) was demonstrated as a new type of electrocatalyst to effectively and economically degrade an azo dye. In comparison to other typical electrodes, Fe-based MG electrodes exhibit a minimized degradation time, and the specific energy is 4-6 orders of magnitude lower than that of dimensionally stable anode(DSA), metal-like boron-doped diamond(BDD) and other electrodes. As sacrificial electrode materials, Fe-based MGs have less specific electrode mass consumption than iron electrodes. The use of Fe-based MGs will promote the practical application of electrochemical technology and the use of MGs as functional materials.

文摘Fe-based metallic glasses(MGs)have shown great commercial values due to their excellent soft magnetic properties.Magnetism prediction with consideration of glass forming ability(GFA)is of great signifi-cance for developing novel functional Fe-based MGs.However,theories or models established based on condensed matter physics exhibit limited accuracy and some exceptions.In this work,based on 618 Fe-based MGs samples collected from published works,machine learning(ML)models were well trained to predict saturated magnetization(B_(s))of Fe-based MGs.GFA was treated as a feature using the experimental data of the supercooled liquid region(△T_(x)).Three ML algorithms,namely eXtreme gradient boosting(XGBoost),artificial neural networks(ANN)and random forest(RF),were studied.Through feature selection and hyperparameter tuning,XGBoost showed the best predictive performance on the randomly split test dataset with determination coefficient(R^(2))of 0.942,mean absolute percent error(MAPE)of 5.563%,and root mean squared error(RMSE)of 0.078 T.A variety of feature importance rankings derived by XGBoost models showed that T_(x) played an important role in the predictive performance of the models.This work showed the proposed ML method can simultaneously aggregate GFA and other features in ther-modynamics,kinetics and structures to predict the magnetic properties of Fe-based MGs with excellent accuracy.

文摘The experimental results concerning the effects of Mo on the glass-forming ability(GFA), thermal stability, and mechanical, anticorrosion, and magnetic properties of an(Fe_(71.2)B_(24)Y_(4.8))_(96)Nb_4 bulk metallic glass(BMG) were presented. An industrial Fe–B alloy was used as the raw material, and a series of Fe-based BMGs were synthesized. In BMGs with the Mo contents of approximately 1at%–2at%, the cast alloy reached a critical diameter of 6 mm. The hardness and fracture strength also reached their maximum values in this alloy system. However, the anticorrosion and magnetic properties of the BMGs were not substantially improved by the addition of Mo. The low cost, good GFA, high hardness, and high fracture strength of the Fe-based BMGs developed in this work suggest that they are potential candidates for commercial applications.

文摘The corrosion behavior study was conducted on a novel Fe77 Mo5P9C7.5 B1.5 in-situ metallic glass matrix composite （MGMC）. This composite sample was developed by introduction of bcc a-Fe dendrites as reinforcing phase. The corrosion behavior of this composite was compared to its monolithic counterpart and other Fe-based alloys such as 304L and 2304L stainless steels. The corrosion resistance of MGMCs in H2SO4 solution shows inferior to that of other Fe-based alloys. Experiments suggest that Fe-BMGs samples possess better corrosion resistance property than that of Fe-MGMCs. The possible underlying reasons can be the inhomogeneity induced by the precipitation of a-Fe dendrites in the MGMCs.
