In this work, we investigated magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effect in Fe90−xCoxZr7Cu1B2 (x = 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4) melt-spun ribbons. The ribbons were prepared by using a melt-spinning method with a tangential velocity of a copper wheel of 40 m·s-1. The obtained ribbons are almost amorphous. The alloys exhibit typical soft magnetic behavior with low coercivity at room temperature. A minor replacement of Fe by Co gives an increment in Curie temperature (TC) of the alloys to higher temperatures. The TC of the alloys increases from 242 to 342 K with an increase of x from 0 to 4. Maximum magnetic entropy change, ΔSm max, of the alloys, was found to be larger than 0.7 J·kg-1·K-1 in a magnetic field change ΔH of 12 kOe for all the concentrations of Co. High refrigerant capacitys (RC >100 J ·kg-1 with ΔH = 12 kOe) at room temperature region have been obtained for the alloys. The large magnetocaloric effect near room temperature suggests that the alloys can be considered as magnetic refrigerants in the range of 250–350 K.

In this paper, we present the results of studying magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effect of Fe90-xPrxZr10 (x = 1, 2 and 3) rapidly quenched alloys. The alloy ribbons with thickness of about 15 µm were prepared by melt-spinning method on a single roller system. X-ray diffraction patterns of the ribbons manifest their almost amorphous structure. Thermomagnetization measurements show that the Curie temperature of the alloys can be controlled to be near room temperature by changing concentration of Pr (x). When the concentration of Pr is increased, saturation magnetization of the alloys increased from 48 emu/g (with x = 1) to 66.8 emu/g (with x = 2). All the ribbons reveal soft magnetic behavior with low coercive force (Hc < 42 Oe). The magnetic entropy change of the alloys, |∆Sm|max > 0.9 J.kg-1K-1 in magnetic field change DH = 12 kOe, shows large magnetocaloric effect at phase transition temperature. On the other hand, the working temperature range is quite large (dFWHM ~ 70 K) revealing an application potential in magnetic refrigeration technology of these alloys.

The correlation between the grain refining effect of TiC on the microstructure of Pr2Co14B melt-spun ribbons and the magnetic properties is presented in this study. TiC enabled greater control of microstructure both in the as-spun and heat treated Pr2Co14B, compared with the material without TiC. As a result, coercivity of the sample with TiC was nearly twice that of the sample without TiC. In addition to Pr2Co14B, two other phases were found in the sample with TiC: one rich in Co and the other having a composition near PrCo2. TiC was found near the grain boundaries and at triple junctions. Also no Ti or C was found in the matrix phase indicating extreme low solubility of the elements when both are present with Pr2Co14B. As expected, both the samples with and without TiC have similar anisotropy field but the presence of room temperature non-ferromagnetic phases (TiC and PrCo2), caused a small decrease in magnetization of the sample with TiC although the romance of the isotropic materials were comparable.

The melt-spun ribbons of LaFe11.5Si1.5Cx (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) compounds are prepared by the melt fast-quenching method. The doping of C is beneficial to the nucleation and precipitation of the La (Fe, Si)13 phase, which is indicated by the microstructure observation and the elemental analysis. Subsequently, the ribbons of LaFe11.5Si1.5C0.2 are annealed at different times, and the phase composition, the microstructures, and the magnetic properties are investigated. The LaFe11.5Si1.5C0.2 ribbons annealed at 1273 K for 2 h achieved the best magnetic properties, and the maximum isothermal magnetic entropy change with a value of 9.45 J/(kg·K) upon an applied field of 1.5 T at an increased Curie temperature 255 K.

AbstractA magnetocaloric effect with wide tunability was observed in melt-spun amorphous Gd65Fe15-xCo5+xAl10Si5 (x = 0, 5, 10) alloys of different Fe/Co ratios. Their magnetic properties were compared with those of the previously investigated parent alloy Gd65Fe10Co10Al15. The glassy structure of the melt-spun samples was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and 57Fe Mössbauer spectrometry. Their Curie temperatures (TC) were between 155 and 195 K and increased significantly with decreasing Co content. The highest value of the magnetic entropy change ΔSM = − 6.8 J/kg K was obtained for Gd65Fe5Co15Al10Si5, when the magnetic field was increased from 0 to 5 T. Refrigerant capacity (RC) takes values close to 700 J/kg for the whole series of the alloys. The occurrence of the second-order phase transition and the conformity of the magnetic behavior with the mean field model were concluded on the basis of the analysis of the universal curves and the values of the exponent n (ΔSM ∝ Hn).

AbstractSamples of Fe76RE16B8 have been prepared by melt spinning and plasma deposition. The samples were fully saturated by cooling fran 350°C in a 5 kOe field. The room temperature coercivities of these samples are reported and correlated to the microstructures revealed by scanning electron microscopy. Subsequent heat treatments are shown to either increase or decrease the intrinsic coercivities depending upon the solidification rate that each sample experienced.
