The Kissinger analysis of crystallization implies that the effective activation energies for the precipitation of I-phase and its decomposition considerably increases due to the repeated melting of mother ingot. Repeated melting of mother ingot refines ingot microstructure. Because of structure heredity, the size of the short-range orders (SROs) in the glassy alloy produced from the mother ingot with finer microstructure becomes smaller, which makes the rearrangement of atoms more clifficult, and the I-phase more stable.展开更多
