Fe-based bulk metallic glasses: Glass formation, fabrication, properties and applications
The invention of bulk metallic glasses has stimulated extensive interest, due to their possible technological applications in a variety of industrial fields and their scientific importance in understanding related condensed matter physics. Among all types of BMGs, Fe-based BMGs are a unique yet important family due to their high mechanical strength, good thermal stability, strong corrosion resistance, excellent soft magnetic properties, and relatively low production costs. Since the first synthesis of the Fe-Al-Ga-P-C-B BMG reported in 1995, a vast body of literature regarding Fe-based BMGs has been published. However, until now, a full and systematic description of the development status and future prospects of Fe-based BMGs has been missing. Therefore, this article presents the research development and achievements of Fe-based BMGs in the past few decades, including their preparation, glass-forming ability, crystallization characteristics, mechanical properties, corrosion behaviors, soft and hard magnetic properties, and industrial applications. In addition, future developments of Fe-based BMGs are also proposed.
