Taking the BMG series as a material system, the physi ca l and structural parameters of the BMG were separately calculated by the additio nal principle, including mixed entropy S mix , mole atomic radius differ ence εd, mole atomic electronic difference εe, thermal diffusion ratio α and ratio (T m/H m) of melting point temperature T m and me lting enthalpy H m. R c(critical cooling velocity), Z max ( maximum size) and Z max /R c for BMG were considered as the targe t of glass forming abil ity respectively. The statistic figures ε d·ε e ·α·S mix ·T m/H m (denoted by Л): R c,-Л, Z max -Л ,Z max /R c-Л have been drawn by Origin 6.1 software. The re sults showed that the optimum GFA for Л=0.020~0.175, for Л=0.047~0.1 50 and for Л=0.03~0.15 when R c,Z max and Z max /R c as were taken as the target respectively. The range of c omprehensive optimum Л is 0.047~0.15. It was concuded that the Л was an ideal new paramete r to characterise the glass forming ability of the BMG.
