Abstract

Measurements have been made of the corrosion and fatigue properties of metallic glass wires of composition Fe75-xCrxB15Si10 (X = 5, 8, 11) in air, deionized water, 3.5 w/o NaCl and 1.0 N H2SO4. A clear inverse relationship was observed between the corrosion rate and the number of cycles to failure. Fatigue limits were observed for those cases where spontaneous passivation occurs (all compositions in air and deionized water, and 8 and 11 a/o Cr in chloride solution). It was found that the mechanism for the fatigue failure of specimens which spontaneously passivate differs from that of metallic glasses in an acidified chloride environment where active/passive behavior is observed. A model is proposed to explain this observation.
