Novel processing technologies for metals such as 3D printing require the application of high heating and cooling rates and ideally the use of isotropic materials. The glass-forming alloys are good candidates for such applications. We directly determine the thermodynamic fragility index of two metallic glasses (Mg₆₅Cu₂₅Gd₁₀ and Au₄₉Cu_26.9Si_16.3Ag_5.5Pd_2.3) from fictive temperature shifts induced by a variation of the quenching rate using fast differential scanning calorimetry (FDSC). Recent chip calorimeters are able to achieve the cooling rates necessary to perform such an evaluation. For the Mg₆₅Cu₂₅Gd₁₀ and Au₄₉Cu_26.9Si_16.3Ag_5.5Pd_2.3 metallic glasses studied, we find very good agreement of the kinetic fragility index with literature data obtained by conventional calorimetry and rheology. We also applied ultra-fast chip calorimetry in combination with time-resolved micro-diffraction directly recorded with fast pixel array detectors. This way we can investigate the structural modifications of bulk metallic glasses (BMGs), in-situ, on ultra-fast temperature changes. Combining the very high time resolution of structural and calorimetric data acquisition, we investigated the mechanisms and the kinetics of the metastable phase transformations of this group of materials at ultra-high rates of temperature change. The understanding of the kinetic transition paths of- to date still unknown- metastable material states is the foundation for the development of tailored thermomechanical treatment routes towards novel applications of BMGs.
