(Cu₄₃Zr₄₈Al₉)₉₈Y₂-based bulk metallic glass composites (BMGCs) with dispersed Ta particles (3vol.%, 6vol.%, 9vol.%) were successfully fabricated through suction casting. The thermal properties, microstructure, and mechanical properties of the BMGCs were systematically investigated. Ta particles are homogeneously dispersed in the amorphous matrix. Ta particle reinforced BMGCs exhibit similar thermal properties and glass-forming ability with the (Cu₄₃Zr₄₈Al₉)₉₈Y₂ base BMG. Compression test results show that the BMGC with 9vol.% Ta particles has superior mechanical performance with up to 15.7% compressive plastic strain, 2,216 MPa yield strength, and 2,260 MPa fracture strength at room temperature. These homogeneously distributed Ta particles act as discrete obstacles in the amorphous matrix, restricting the highly localized shear band. This results in the formation of multiple shear bands around the Ta-rich particles, which lowers the stress concentration, allowing the shear band to propagate further and improve plasticity.
