Formation of zirconium metallic glass
Article Abstract:
The formation of a bulk metallic glass from elemental zirconium at high static pressures and low temperatures using X-ray diffraction measurements is reported. Amorphous zirconium is recovered at ambient conditions and demonstrates a superior thermal stability compared to amorphous alloys, which can lead to new high-temperature applications of amphorous metals.

Designing metallic glass matrix composites with high toughness and tensile ductility
Article Abstract:
The development and design of the highly processable titanium-zirconium-based bulk metallic glasses (MNGs) is investigated. These glass matrix composites are found to exhibit extremely high toughness and tensile ductility.

Hydrogenation and cleavage of dinitrogen to ammonia with a zirconium complex
Article Abstract:
The work on zirconium complexes containing cyclopentadienyl ligands is presented. The complexes show that adjustment of the ligands allows direct observation of N-H bond formation from N2 and H2.
