Systematic changes in composition were employed to increase the notch toughness of a variety of Fe-based Bulk Metallic Glasses (BMGs). The Fe50Mn10Mo14Cr4C16B6 BMG possessed very high hardness (e.g. 12 GPa) but very low notch toughness (e.g. 5.7 MPa m1/2) at room temperature, consistent with fracture surface observations of brittle features. Many of the other Fe-BMG variants, created to change the Poisson's ratio via systematic changes in alloy chemistry, exhibited higher toughness but more scatter in the data, reflected in a lower Weibull modulus. SEM examination revealed fracture initiation always occurred at inclusions in samples exhibiting lower toughness and/or Weibull modulus for a given chemistry. Implications of these observations on reliability of BMGs are discussed.
