The aim of this work was to investigate the influence of isothermal annealing on the amorphous structure stability of the Zr48 Cu36 Al8 Ag8 alloy. A series of continuous heating examinations was performed on the differential scanning calorimeter in order to determine the temperature limits for isothermal annealing series where the time to crystallization was measured. The obtained results were calculated and a time-temperature-transformation diagram was created and discussed. Static compression test as well as microhardness measurements of the as-quenched samples gave a mechanical properties results supplement. The measured properties (σc = 1800 MPa and 614 HV0.05) are comparable to the literature results for this alloy. Fractographic observations with the scanning electron microscope were also performed in order to prove some plasticity observed during the strength tests.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a two-step isothermal annealing respectively at 1000 ˚C for 30 min, then at the range of 900÷450 ˚C increments 50 ˚C on the microstructure CuAl10 Ni5Fe5 bronze with additions of Si, Cr, Mo, W and C, cast into sand moulds. The study concerned the newly developed species, bronze, aluminium-iron-nickel with additions of Si, Cr, Mo, W and C. In order to determine the time and temperature for the characteristic of phase transitions that occur during heat treatment of the test method was used thermal and derivation analysis (TDA). The study was conducted on cylindrical test castings cast in the mould of moulding sand. It was affirmed that one the method TDA can appoint characteristic for phase transformations points about co-ordinates: τ (s), t (˚C), and to plot out curves TTT for the studied bronze with their use. It was also found that there is a five isothermal annealing temperature ranges significantly altering the microstructure of examined bronze.
