A method of heat treatments of amorphous alloy ribbons comprises the sequential steps of; grinding amorphous alloy ribbon continuously fed at a predetermined speed (V) selectively varied in the range of 1 cm/sec.ltoreq.V.ltoreq.50 cm/sec, to uniformly finish the ribbon, and successively, heat-treating the ribbon with its surface contacting a stationary or rotating heating body having a surface temperature (T) defined in the range of (T.sub.cry -200.degree. C.).ltoreq.V.ltoreq.(T.sub.cry +50.degree. C.), where T.sub.cry is a crystallization point temperature of the alloy, to uniformly enhance the magnetic properties of the ribbon, and to remove the specific curlings inherently caused by so-called splat cooling manufacturing method, without causing any developments of brittleness of the ribbon mentioned above.

A method of making fibrous alkali titanates comprising the steps of preparing a mixture including a titanium compound and an alkali metal compound in a molar ratio of 1.0 to 8.0 in terms of TiO.sub.2 :M.sub.2 O (M: Na, K, Rb, Cs), heating said mixture at a temperature of 1200.degree. to 1600.degree. C to the molten (liquid) phase, cooling the thus heated mixture to room temperature , and washing the thus treated product. This method is advantageous because fibrous alkali titanates of large ratio of length to diameter can be easily produced in high yield.
