← ScienceWhich behavior results after rapid cooling amorphous-forming alloy?
A)Increased crystalline grain boundary corrosion
B)Formation of extended short-range order✓
C)Decreased resistance domain wall motion
D)Development of strong crystallographic textures
💡 Explanation
Amorphous metals solidify without long-range crystal order. Because the cooling rate bypasses nucleation sites, atomic diffusion promotes the formation of extended short-range order; therefore corrosion resistance is likely retained rather than crystal defects arising.
