| Abstract |
The present basically concerns with the synthesis of foamy structured amorphous Zrbased
alloy, Zr41.2Ti13.8Cu12.5Ni10.0Be22.5 (Vit-1), by liquid state processing. In this method, melt was
injected in to the evacuated interstitial voids of the NaCl crystals placed in a copper mould. The
casting has been subsequently washed with a jet of water to ensure the removal of NaCl entrapped
in the casting, thus resulting in a porous structured casting. It shows the possibility of synthesizing
amorphous metal foams with large dimensions using salt infiltration technique. |
