Abstract
The pressure-volume (P-V) relation of Zr41Ti14Cu12.5Ni10Be22.5 bulk metalli c glass (BMG) at room tem perature has been studied using a piston-cylinder high-pressure apparatus up to 4.5 GPa. The equation of state of the BMG is determined. As the first equation of state of the BMG, it is compared with other crystalline solids, and the differences are phenomenologically expla ined. The experimental results indicate the BMG contains a large amount of vacancylike free volume.
