Ti45Cu40Ni7Zr5Sn2.5Si0.5 alloys were prepared under various cooling rate conditions during solidification. The alloys exhibited different volume fractions of B2 particles with 0～40 vol％in an amorphous matrix. Monolithic bulk metallic glass of 1 mm diameter showed no macroscopic plasticity and exhibited the typical vein patts in a maximum shear stress plane on the fracture surface. However, a bulk metallic glass composite containing the B2 particles revealed obvious plasticity (～5.6％) with a remarkable work-hardening behavior that resulted from a stress-induced martensitic transformation of the B2 particles. Moreover, the composite displayed the com-plicated fracture morphologies containing of three types of fracture features. Through detailed investigations on the microstructural evolution, mechanical, deformation and fracture characteristics, the influence of B2 particle on overall behavior of the TiCu-based bulk metallic glass composites was elucidated.
