Abstract
The tribological characteristics of a glass-forming alloy, Zr 52.5Cu17.9Ni14.6Al10.0Ti 5.0, in atomic percent (at.%, Vit 105), with different microstructural states have been investigated. Friction and wear studies were conducted using a ball-on-flat reciprocating sliding apparatus against an AISI E52100 bearing steel under dry condition. The observed wear resistance in an ascending order is: the deformed, creep-tested, and as-cast states. Wear analyses suggested that the wear processes of glass-forming alloys involved abrasion, adhesion, and oxidation. The differences in hardness, free volume, and brittleness in different states significantly affected the friction and wear behaviors of the glass-forming alloys.
