Al-Y-Fe amorphous and nanocrystalline alloys are characterized by a unique collection of diverse properties that are influenced by various factors, including heat treatment. In this paper, the effect of heat treatment on the structural changes and selected properties of Al-Y-Fe metallic glasses in the as-spun state is investigated. The structure of the Al88Y7Fe5 and Al88Y6Fe6 alloys was examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Mössbauer spectroscopy (MS). The corrosion resistance of the samples was characterized using polarization tests in a 3.5% NaCl solution at 25 °C. The effect of sodium chloride on the surface was studied with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The magnetic properties of Al-based alloys were explored using a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). It was revealed that the tested alloys show better properties after annealing than in the as-spun state. The annealing of the Al88Y7Fe5 and Al88Y6Fe6 alloys in the temperature range of 200 to 300 °C improved the magnetic properties and corrosion resistance of these materials. After 3,600 s, the better EOCP values were recorded for the Al88Y6Fe6 and Al88Y7Fe5 alloys after annealing at 300 °C and 200 °C, adequately. On the basis of the polarization tests, it was concluded that the electrochemical properties are better for Al88Y6Fe6 alloys after annealing at 300 °C.

A novel photocatalytic process using a modification of photo-Fenton reaction, with sodium percarbonate (SP), as an alternative source of H2O2, and alloy Al65Cu20Fe15 containing, among others, quasicrystals (of the percentage composition Al65Cu20Fe15), being a source of iron ions, effectively decolourizes the aqueous solution of rhodamine B (RB; solution of 5 mg/l). The source of UV radiation was a lamp with a power of 36 W. The experiments were carried out at pH = 7 and reaction time (from 5 to 60 min). The increase in SP concentration (in the range of 8.3 to 33.3 g/l) significantly increased the degree of degradation of RB and the reaction rate. However, the use of quasicrystals, in the range of 8.3 to 33.3 g/l, was also important in the modified photocatalytic photo-Fenton process. The best degradation effects of RB (95%) were obtained for the highest SP concentration of 33.3 g/l and the lowest quasicrystal concentration of 8.3 g/l. On the other hand, visual decolourization of RB was obtained with an efficiency of 70% for SP and quasicrystal concentrations of 16.7 g/l and 16.7 g/l, respectively, after 45 minutes, and for SP and quasicrystal concentrations of 33.3 g/l and 8.3 g/l, respectively, after the time of 20 minutes. The best RB degradation effects in the comparative method (UV/Na2CO3·1.5H2O2 without the addition of quasicrystals) were only 52.7%. The obtained results encourage further research to optimize the conditions of the proposed method and to investigate its applicability to other types of dyes and pollutants.
