We have investigated the origin of significantly high thermal stability of Zr 50 Cu 40 Al 10 metallic glass and its crystallization behavior as compared to Zr 70 CU 20 Al 10 and Zr 70 Cu 30 glassy alloys, by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), x-ray diffraction (XRD) and resonant ultrasound spectroscopy (RUS) techniques. It was found from XRD and DSC analyses that (i) constituent atoms in Zr 50 CU 40 Al 10 are highly close-packed in a glassy state and (ii) Zr 50 Cu 40 Al 10 glass shows a complicated crystallization process when it is heated at conventional heating rates, but when it is rapidly heated, the ordered B2-type ZrCu is dominantly formed. The high thermal stability and its crystallization behavior are discussed in terms of the long-range-diffusion of atoms and elastic strain energy.
