Abstract Metallic glasses possess densely packed and disordered atomic structures linked by non-directional metallic bonds. Within these structures, the superior properties of conventional glasses and crystalline metals can be combined with excellent physical, chemical, and mechanical properties for widespread applications. Metallic glasses also offer a unique model system for fundamental studies on amorphous materials. For these reasons, they have attracted global interest. Phase-transition studies can deepen people's understanding of the atomic structures of materials and can realize materials with tunable properties. The polyamorphic transitions in conventional amorphous materials are not expected in metallic glasses because the latter are already densely packed. However, in situ high-pressure synchrotron X-ray probing techniques have recently detected polyamorphic transitions in metallic glasses. This new phenomenon, its underlying mechanism, and the related property changes have recently sparked much excitement. This paper reviews the recent progress in polyamorphic transitions in metallic glasses and the influence of such transitions on their atomic structure and properties.
