The microstructures of the in situ bulk-metallic-glass-matrix composites are usually controlled by changing the alloy compositions. In this paper, Zr-based bulk-metallic-glass-matrix composites containing dendrites with a fixed composition of Zr37.5Ti32.2Nb7.2Cu6.1Be17.0 are synthesized by the Bridgman solidification. The sizes and volume fractions of dendrites in the composites are controlled by adjusting the withdrawal velocities. A linear relationship between the spanning lengths of individual dendrites and the withdrawal velocities is established. Large plasticity and tensile necking can be obtained by only controlling the cooling condition.
