Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) Fe-B-Y-Nb-Cu, 2 mm in diameter, were successfully annealed to become bulk nano-crystalline alloys (BNCAs) with alpha-Fe crystallite 11-13 nm in size. A 'crystallization-and-stop' model was proposed to explain this behavior. Following this model, alloy-design criteria were elucidated and testified successful on another Fe-based BMGs Fe-B-Si-Nb-Cu, 1 mm in diameter, with crystallite sizes 10-40 nm. It was concluded that BNCAs can be designed in general by the proposed criteria. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
