BMGs:Mg-based alloysPROPERTIESMg-based alloy shows both high strenght to weight ratio and a low glass transition temperature
Good corrosion resistance
Low cost and ability to be recycled so Mg alloys should be highly desiderable for applications

Mg-based glass forming alloys have a relatively large G.F.A.Samples up to 4 and 9 mm in diameter were obtained in Mg65Cu25Y10alloys by copper mould castingZhang Y, Tan H, Kong HZ, Yao B, Li Y. JMater Res 2003;18:664.
H.Ma, Q.Zheng, J.Xu, Y.Li, E.Ma; “J.Mater.Res,Vol20,No9 Sep2005 pag-2252-2255
How can we reach a high G.F.A?
Large G.F.A. obtained simultaneously with high value of Trg(Tg/Tm) and ΔTx(Tx-Tg)
The largest G.F.A. lies really at the eutectic point?
Which eutectic is involved for the system Mg-Cu-Y?
European School-BMGs/13-16 Sept ’06, Turin,ITALY
Calculated ternary systemDescription of the liquid ternary phase has been carried out by extrapolation from the assessed binary parameters. The aim of the work is to know:
The eutectic position
Ternary compounds, one or more?

Extrapolation from binary diagrams at different temperature leads to a different eutectic point.

Mg65Cu25Y10 was determined to be at a eutectic composition,but recently the best BMG former in the Mg-Cu-Y system was found to be located at the off- eutectic composition Mg58.5Cu30.5Y11 and Mg58Cu30.5Y11.5. The critical size for BMG formation now has been more than double from 4 to 9 mm. H.Ma, Q.Zheng, J.Xu, Y.Li, E.Ma; “J.Mater.Res,Vol20,No9 Sep2005 pag-2252-2255

Mg-Cu SystemIn order to describe the ternary Cu-Mg-Y system, binary parameters have to be known.
Binary system shows amorphous phases G.F.R is around the eutectic between hcp-Mg and Mg2Cu phases
In order to determine experimental values of thermodynamic properties related to the amorphous phase, glassy ribbons have been prepared.
