Abstract

In amorphous iron-chromium alloys magnetic contraction is superimposed on the thermal expansion. Depending on the proportion of antiferromagnetic chromium the resultant coefficient of expansion is either positiv, negative or zero. The chromium content also changes the Curie temperature. Relaxation processes have a marked effect on the thermal expansion. Long term and short term expansion behaviour was compared and discussed. In addition the crystallization behaviour and mechanical properties of the alloys are reported.
