Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Fe-based metallic glasses have excellent properties; however, they are difficult to form into complex shapes because of their high hardness with poor plasticity. In this study, we proposed a novel two-step fabrication process for micro components using viscous flow of an Fe-based metallic glass under super-cooled liquid region. We successfully prepared mono-sized [(Fe0.5Co0.5)0.75 Si0.05B0.2]96Nb4 spherical particles with precisely controlled volumes that correspond to the desired micro component volume. It is confirmed that the prepared spherical particles were composed of a single glassy phase. Then, one prepared particle was die-pressed into one micro component under the super-cooled liquid region. The main deformation mechanism is viscous flow and the micro hot-press apparatus was used to realize the optimal processing conditions for micro viscous flow.
