[0077] (5) Standard sample preparation: A relatively static alloy melt enters the mold cavity of the mold assembly through a guide port and solidifies under appropriate cooling conditions to obtain an amorphous alloy die-casting standard sample.

The results showed that although the alloy was fully filled, the oxygen content increased to 457 ppm and the compressive strength decreased to 1601.2 MPa, indicating that too high a casting temperature had an adverse effect on the alloy properties.
[0088] Comparative Example 2
[0089] During the alloy melting stage, the resistance heating jacket of the casting assembly was heated to 800° C. The remaining steps were the same as in Example 1.

[0092] Comparative Example 4

The results showed that the alloy was not fully filled and could not meet the requirements of the compression standard test, and the oxygen content was 91 ppm, indicating that too low a mold heating temperature had an adverse effect on the alloy properties.
[0094] Comparative Example 5
[0095] Except that the baffle is not provided inside the casting assembly, the remaining steps are the same as those in Example 1. The results show that although the alloy is fully filled, the oxygen content is significantly increased to 463 ppm, and the compressive strength is reduced to 1523.4 MPa.
[0096] Comparative Example 6
[0097] Except that the outer wall of the mold assembly is not provided with a resistance heating element, the remaining steps are the same as those of Example 1. The results show that the alloy is not completely filled and cannot meet the requirements for the compression standard test, and the oxygen content is 92 ppm.
[0098] Comparative Example 7
[0099] At the same time, the baffle inside the casting assembly and the resistance heating element on the outer wall of the mold assembly were removed, and the remaining steps were the same as in Example 1. The results showed that the alloy was not fully filled and could not meet the test requirements, and the oxygen content was as high as 570ppm.
