Background technology
By the amorphous alloy of alloy from the preparation of the method for gaseous state or liquid rapid solidification, do not have the long-range atomic ordered, and has special amorphous structure, thereby make amorphous alloy have crystal alloy incomparable mechanical property, as high strength, high rigidity, snappiness, high fracture toughness property and anti-corrosion, wear resistance, has huge potential application foreground at space flight, aviation field and biomedical sector.The Zr base amorphous alloy has been successfully used to prepare golf club head, tennis racket and space flight solar wind collector and some other products with its high amorphous formation ability, good performance.Typical system has Zr-Ti-Ni-Cu-Be (A.Pekerand W.L.Johnson, Appl.Phys.Lett.63,2342 (1993) .), Zr-Al-Ni-Cu-RE (J.Luo, H.P.Duan, C.L.Ma, S.J.Pang and T.Zhang, Mater.Trans.JIM, 47 (2006), p.1), Zr-Cu-Ni-Al-Ti (X.H.Lin, W.L.Johnson, andW.K.Rhim, Mater.Trans., JIM 38,473 (1997) .), Zr-Al-Ni-Cu amorphous alloys such as (T.Zhang, A.Inoue and T.Masumoto:Mater.Trans.JIM 32 (1991) 1005-1010).These amorphous alloys all have higher amorphous formation ability, and critical size reaches tens even tens millimeters.
Up to now, in the block zirconium-base amorphous alloy of in world's research range, having developed, have in the alloy of high amorphous formation ability and all contain Ni, Be etc. mostly to the deleterious element of organism, this has just limited its application on biomaterial and medical device greatly.Therefore, exploitation had not only had high amorphous formation ability but also had not contained the alloy material of Ni, Be element, had been the inexorable trend of zirconium-base amorphous development that can widespread use.
Summary of the invention
One of purpose of the present invention provide a kind of can form large block amorphous, have a higher breaking tenacity and not containing again to the deleterious element Ni of biology, Be and amorphous alloy with good anti-corrosion, be specially: a kind of Zirconium based amorphous alloy is characterized in that the expression formula of alloying constituent is:

Realize technical scheme of the present invention:
Is the Metal Melting of certain ingredients proportioning mother alloy earlier, will be cast into metal die after the mother alloy remelting then and be frozen into amorphous alloy.Be specially:
Amorphous alloy of the present invention is prepared from by following method:
Step 1, take by weighing each element
Calculating each associated element wt by required atom number takes by weighing;
Step 2, melting system Zr-Al-Cu-RE mother alloy
The described batching that step 1 takes by weighing is put into vacuum smelting furnace, regulate suction to 5 * 10
-3Pa charges into 0.05MPa argon shield gas then; Regulate electric current 20A, 1000 ℃ of smelting temperatures; Take out the Zr-Al-Cu-RE mother alloy behind the smelting time 5-10min behind the furnace cooling;
Step 3, system Zr-Al-Cu-RE non-crystaline amorphous metal bar
The Zr-Al-Cu-RE mother alloy that step 2 is made is put into the induction furnace of quick solidification apparatus, regulates suction to 5 * 10
-3Pa charges into 0.05MPa argon shield gas then; Regulate electric current 2-10A, temperature sensor 700-1000 ℃;
Spray into behind the smelting time 2-5min (selecting the internal recess diameter respectively is the mould of 2~20mm) in the copper mold, with making Zr-Al-Cu-RE non-crystaline amorphous metal bar after the copper mold cooling.
Zr-Al-Cu-RE non-crystaline amorphous metal bar intercepting Φ 2mm * 4mm with making tests its compression mechanical property, and the compression mechanical property of material adopts the MTS testing of equipment.
In the Zr-Al-Cu system, add rare earth element and can play and stablize the effect that liquid phase and oxygen uptake suppress heterogeneous forming core, can reduce its fusing point significantly, shortening fusing point T
lWith glass transformation temperature T
gBetween distance, make metal liquid in process of cooling, can keep the supercooled liquid state to pass through T fast
lWith T
gBetween temperature province, avoid crystallization, thereby make alloy have high glass forming ability and good thermostability.
Table 1 shows the thermodynamic property and the mechanical property of the part amorphous alloy rod of being cast.The supercooled liquid of Zr base amorphous alloy of the present invention has higher thermostability, the interval Δ Tx of supercooled liquid (=Tx-Tg)>70K, critical size Φ>the 15mm of the amorphous alloy that forms, the wideest Δ Tx is 124K, the compressed rupture strength of described alloy can reach more than the 2265MPa, the compressive plastic deformation amount can reach more than 2.3%, do not contain organism harmful element Ni and Be, have simultaneously high strength and high tenacity again, be easy to produce, can be widely used in making various structured materials, sports equipment, biomaterial and medical device.
