A method for predicting the crystallization temperature and crystallization driving force of ternary amorphous alloys was provided. This method is an extension of the smallest-vacancy model suggested by Buschow for evaluating crystallization temperatures. The crystallization enthalpy and crystallization driving force are evaluated by using Miedema's semi-empirical model and the crystallization temperature is predicted. Calculation of the crystallization temperatures and enthalpy for (Mg70.6Ni29.4)1-xNdx(x＝5,10,15) amorphous alloys are performed by using this method. The calculated results accord well with experimental data and the relative error is less than 8% and 7% for crystallization temperature and crystallization enthalpy, respectively. It is found that with the increasing of crystallization driving force the retention rates of discharge capacity of Mg-Ni-Nd amorphous alloys decreases. For the (Mg70.6Ni29.4)1-xNdx(x＝1—20) amorphous alloys, the lowest crystallization driving force appears when the Nd content reaches 6.3%. That means (Mg70.6Ni29.4)93.7Nd6.3 amorphous alloy could have better retention rate of discharge capacity.
