Zr 41 Ti 14 Cu 12.5 Ni 10 Be 22.5 bulk metallic glass (BMG) was prepared by shock-wave quenching. Differences in property, structure, and thermal stability were found between the BMGs prepared by the shock-wave quenching and water quenching. The glass transition temperature of the shock-wave-quenched BMG is about 13K higher than that of the water-quenched one. Although the density of the shock-wave-quenched BMG is decreased, the acoustic velocities in it are increased. Shock-wave quenching is possibly a promising method for preparing BMG.
