Abstract

The σ—T and dσ/dTT curves of the FeCuNbSiB amorphous alloy, which are the relationship between the total saturated magnetic moment per unit mass σ and temperature, are investigated by magnetic thermogravimetry analysis (TG(M)) technique. It is found that the crystallization process of the samples can be divided into five stages. The studies of samples annealed in temperature range of 480–610°C for 1h show that when the annealing temperature (Ta) is less than 540°C, the quantity of nanocrystalline α-Fe(Si) phase increases evidently with Ta, and the Curie temperature (TC) of residual amorphous phase also increases linearly with Ta, i.e. TC=0.52Ta+91.7°C, with correlation coefficient γ=0.98. The variation of volume fraction of α-Fe(Si) nanocrystalline phase or residual amorphous phase with Ta is measured by TG(M) technique.
