Abstract

Ti-Ni-Al alloys were rapidly quenched from a molten state by the melt spinning method. Three kinds of metastable phases, namely, amorphous,nonequilibrium and quasicrystalline phases are formed in these alloys. The amorphous phase is formed in the range of 35 to 70 at% Ti and 0 to 25 at% Al. The nonequilibrium phases are formed in the composition range of 25 to 33 at% Ti. On the other hand, fine quasicrystalline phases are distributed in the amorphous matrix of the Ti-rich alloys. Crystallization temperatures and the hardness of the amorphous alloys were also examined.
