Abstract

Abstract : A Ti/Ti-based-metallic-glass interpenetrating phase composite (IPC) was prepared by infiltrating the Ti 34.3 Zr 31 .5 Ni 5 .5 Cu 5 Be 23 .7 melt into the porous Ti skeleton. Porous Ti limits the shear band (SB) propagation and promotes the SB multiplication, leading to the improved ductility. Moreover, the interpenetrating phase structure shows a mutual reinforcement effect for both amorphous and crystalline phases, making IPC possess higher strength than that calculated by the models held for the conventional composites. This finding will suggest a new way for preparing composites with high strength and ductility.
