Abstract

Self-propagating crystallization waves are detected and experimentally demonstrated in the Ti50Cu50 amorphous alloy obtained by the melt spinning (ultrafast quenching) method. High-speed thermographic recording has shown that crystallization waves can appear spontaneously at the heating of an amorphous strip to 300–350°С or at the local initiation by a hot tungsten coil of a small segment of the strip preliminarily heated to 230–250°С. In the former case, the crystallization wave propagates at a velocity of ~7 cm/s; in the latter case, the crystallization wave propagates in a self-oscillation mode at an average velocity of ~1.2 cm/s. The temperature gradient across the wavefront is about 150°С. The samples crystallized in the self-oscillation mode have a characteristic banded structure with a smaller grain in depression regions. The crystallization product in all samples is the TiCu tetragonal intermetallic phase.
