Abstract
An alloy material 4 received in a melting hearth 1 is melted by high-density energy supplied from a heat source 5. The molten alloy is transferred to a forced-cooled die 3 having a cavity 2 defining the profile of a product, and quenched to an amorphous state. The alloy has the composition represented by the general formula of Zr.sub.100-a-b-c A.sub.a B.sub.b C.sub.c, wherein the mark A represents one or more elements selected from Ti, Hf, Al and Ga, the mark B represents one or more elements selected from Fe, Co, Ni and Cu, the mark C represents one or more elements selected from Pd, Pt, Au and Ag, and the marks a-c represent the atomic ratios of respective elements A-C under the conditions of a=5-20, b=15-45, c.ltoreq.10 and a+b+c=30-70. The differential temperature region .DELTA.T (=T.sub.x -T.sub.g) in the supercooled liquid phase of the Zr alloy represented by the difference between the crystallization point T.sub.x and the glass transition point T.sub.g is preferably 100 K or more. The obtained amorphous alloy has a rod-shaped or tubular profile having a large cross section and being excellent in plastic workability.
