Abstract: The bulk metallic glassy (BMG) rods of (Fe_0.5Co_0.5)_0.72B_0.192Si_0.048Nb_0.04100-xY_x (x=0-6) and (Fe_xCo_1-x)_0.72B_0.192Si_0.048Nb_0.0496Y₄ (x=0.5-0.8) were prepared by copper mold casting. The structure, thermal stability, and magnetic properties of the samples were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). Adding 1at% to 6at% of yttrium, the bulk glassy alloy rods of (Fe_0.5Co_0.5)_0.72B_0.192Si_0.048Nb_0.04100-xY_x(x=0-6) with the diameter of 3 mm were not formed, and the sample with 4at% of yttrium showed less crystalline phase than others. When the Fe/Co atomic ratio was between 5:5 and 7:3, the bulk glassy alloy rods of (Fe_1-xCo_x)_0.72B_0.192Si_0.048Nb_0.0496Y₄ (x=0.5-0.8) with the diameter of 2 mm were fabricated. In the (Fe, Co)-B-Si-Nb-Y BMGs, when the Fe content increased, the thermal stability, the supercooled liquid region, and the glass-forming ability (GFA) decreased, but the saturation magnetization (M_s) increased.
