Nonequilibrium Phase Diagrams of Ternary Amorphous Alloys

Metallic amorphous materials are of high strength, high corrosion resistance, high permeability and other industrially important and useful properties. Furthermore, new metallic materials can be produced from metallic amorphous materials by proper crystallization processes, usually heat treatment, to meet the various industrial demands. In subvolume A, 8327 points of formation data of 1532 ternary amorphous alloys consisting of 351 ternary systems have been extracted, classified and evaluated. Preparation methods, atmosphere for preparation of amorphous alloys, sample form and size and phase identification methods are provided. Composition data are given in phase diagrams and tables. Subvolume B is in preparation.
