Abstract
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), powder diffraction and high-resolution X-ray diffraction (XRD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) investigations have been performed on melt-quenched amorphous Ni–P alloys with compositions of 18 to 22 at.% P. The calorimetric results revealed different crystallization routes during linear heating below, at and above the eutectic point (19 at.% P) but with the same general transformation scheme as reported previously for electrodeposited and electroless Ni–P amorphous alloys. The composition dependence of the activation energy of the crystallization and the heats evolved during the structural transformations were determined from DSC measurements. The average grain size was derived from XRD line broadening and inportant imformation on the crystallization products and their microstructure could be revealed also from the TEM studies. All these findings will have special significance when analysing the results of isothermal annealing experiments to be described in a forthcoming paper.
Abstract
DSC-Messungen, pulver- und hochauflösende röntgenographische sowie TEM-Untersuchungen wurden an schmelzgesponnenen amorphen Ni–P-Legierungen (18 bis 22 At.% P) durchgeführt. Es konnte mit Hilfe der kalorimetrischen Messungen festgestellt werden, dass der Kristallisationsvorgang von der Legierungszusammensetzung abhängt, obwohl die Kristallisationssequenz im Allgemeinen dieselbe war, wie früher für elektrolytische und stromlos abgeschiedene amorphe Ni–P-Legierungen beobachtet wurde. Die Abhängigkeit der Aktivierungsenergie der Kristallisation und der Kristallisationsenthalpie vom P-Gehalt wurde aus den DSC-Messungen bestimmt. Aus der Verbreiterung der Röntgenbeugungslinien wurde die Korngröße bestimmt. TEM-Untersuchungen haben weitere wichtige Informationen über die Kristallisationsprodukte sowie über die Mikrostruktur der entstandenen nanokristallinen Phasen geliefert. Diese Ergebnisse haben eine besondere Bedeutung für die Auswertung von ähnlichen Messungen an denselben amorphen Legierungen nach isothermen Wärmebehandlungen, die in einer weiteren Arbeit beschrieben werden sollen.
