Experimental results indicate that after the repeated melting of the ingots at 1300 and 1580K, the glass transition temperature T_g increases from 686.4 to 690.7 and 696.8 K and the onsettemperature of crystallization T_x from 757.9 to 758.6 and 763.4 K, respectively, indicating thatthe thermal stability becomes higher after the repeated arc melting of the mother ingot and that itis more effective at higher temperature. Within the framework of structure heredity, the origin ofthe improvement of the thermal stability of Zr_(60)Al_+(15)Ni_(25) bulk glassy alloy is discussed.展开更多
