Abstract  The effect of Ti on glass--forming ability of bulk (Zr0.59Cu0.18Ni0.13Al0.10)100-xTix (x=0, 1, 2, ...... 6) alloys has been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), differential thermal analysis (DTA), and X--ray diffraction (XRD). It is shown that the liquidus temperature Tl decreases obviously when Ti content (x) increases from 0 to 4, meanwhile the reduced glass temperature (Trg) increases from 0.62 to 0.65. When x exceeds 4, however, Tl increases and Trg decreases respectively with increasing Ti content. The wedge--shaped sample with x=4 has the largest amorphous region, i.e., has the highest relative glass--forming ability, and the relevant supercooled liquid region ΔTx is 77.6℃. The alloy with this composition can be cast into cylinder--like amorphous alloy with 10 mm in diameter and 70 mm in length or sheet--like with 3 mm thickness by arc melting and copper mold casting. More intermetallics phases exist in the amorphous--crystallization zone of the wedge--shape sample with x=4 than those of alloys with x=0 and x=2 as indicated by XRD results. It is suggested that the crystallization would be retarded by the interaction and competition of various phases, thus enabling a higher glass--forming ability.
