摘要
Structural relaxation during isothermal annealing, quantified by enthalpy recovery of Zr44Ti11Cu10Ni10Be25 towards its metastable equilibrium and correlation to embrittlement, quantified through fracture toughness, K-Q, is studied. Enthalpy relaxation over time obeys the Kohlrausch-William-Watts (KWW) stretch exponent with beta = 0.74 and tau = 11,000 s. Such beta and tau are used to fit experimental K-Q(t) with KWW, resulting in R-2 = 0.79. This finding combined with a controlled characterization of the glasses' K-Q versus temperature, fictive temperature, and their combination, revealed that embrittlement in metallic glasses is predominantly controlled by structural rearrangements, whereas volume changes from thermal expansion have negligible influence.
