Ti50Cu25Ni15Sn3Be7 alloy shows enhanced glass-forming ability, enabling one to fabricate a fully amorphous bulk metallic glass sample 2 mm in diameter by injection casting. With the replacement, the supercooled liquid region Delta Tx (= T-x - T-g, where T-x is the crystallization temperature and Tg is the glass transition temperature) decreased from 73 to 45 K and the reduced glass transition temperature T-rg (= T-g/T-1, where T-1 is the liquidus temperature) increased from 0.53 to 0.57. The amorphous Ti50Cu25Ni15Sn3Be7 phase showed a formation of short- rangeordered clusters 1 - 2 nm in size, which is attributed to the strong interaction between Ti and Be. The results show that Delta T-x can be used as a thermal parameter reflecting the glass-forming ability of the alloy only when the phase formed during crystallization is the same as the phase competing with the glass transition during solidification.
