Abstract

Abstract Glassy alloys containing cobalt and molybdenum or tungsten, together with low boron content, are disclosed. The glassy alloys of the invention consist essentially of about 5 to 12 atom percent boron, a member selected from the group consisting of about 20 to 50 atom percent molybdenum and about 15 to 40 atom percent tungsten and the balance essentially cobalt plus incidental impurities. The glassy alloys evidence hardness values of at least about 1130 Kg/mm2, ultimate tensile strengths of at least about 400 Kpsi and crystallization temperatures of at least about 570 DEG C.
