| Abstract Scope |
Metallic glass nanoparticles (MGNPs) with characterize size of a few to hundreds of nanometers have unique and outstanding properties as compared their crystalline counterparts, including much higher strength and ductility, and catalytic performance. Both the particle size and structure isotropy play key roles. Here we report the results of our calculated thermodynamic and kinetic properties of the glass forming liquid droplets that are fundamental in our understanding of the MGNP formation, design and applications. These results are compared to the limited number of experimental measurements in bulk systems, along with the viscosity and diffusivity of the droplets. We show that the kinetic properties of the MGNP droplets exhibit new and different behaviors due largely to the presence of the surface. |
