Abstract In the present study, we prepared Ni59.35Nb34.45Sn6.2 metallic glassy alloy powder by an argon gas atomization process. Microwave (MW)-induced heating and sintering was carried out by a single-mode 2.45 GHz MW applicator in the separated magnetic field or electric field using the obtained glassy powders. The structure and thermal stability of the sintered glassy alloy specimens were investigated. Key Words: Metallic glass, microwave sintering, gas atomization, magnetic field, XRD
