摘 要：In this research, corrosion behavior, mechanical properties and bioactivity of Ti–Zr–Cu–Pd–Sn bulk metallic glasses with minor addition of Au, Pt, Nb or Ta elements were investigated. The results revealed that minor additions of the elements were beneficial to enhancing mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of Ti-based bulk metallic glasses.Minor addition of the element（especially with Nb and Ta addition） results in the improvement in plastic deformation ability due to the existing of nanoparticles with a size smaller than 10 nm in glassy matrix, inhibiting the deformation of the shear bonds. Enrichments of Ti and Zr elements in oxide layer were responsible for high corrosion resistance. The bioactivity of Ti-based bulk metallic glasses was also investigated. The best combination of large plastic deformation ability, good corrosion resistance and bioactivity in Ti₄₀Zr₁₀Cu₃₃Pd₁₄Sn₂Ta₁ BMG was obtained.
