Abstract
Co78-xPtxB10Si12 alloys were produced using the melt-spin process in order to study the crystallization behavior and ensuing magnetic properties of the Co78-xPtxB10Si12 (Co-Pt) amorphous alloys as a function of the Pt content. We showed that when x > 15 well below its stoichiometric composition, CoPt crystallized in the amorphous alloy, thus greatly altering the crystallized microstructure and magnetic properties during annealing. Below this composition, the main crystallization product was Co with Pt dissolved in its lattice. In spite of the nucleation of CoPt with high magnetic anisotropy, the highest coercivity was obtained when x was 15. It was also concluded that the Pt addition deteriorated the glass stability, triggering the devitrification at a progressively lower temperature.
