The crystal structures of the as-quenched and as annealed powders were investigated by XRD methods with following Rietveld analysis. The glass forming ability could be enhanced by the increase of Sm content to x≤5.Metastable Sm5Fe17-type structure existed when 3≤x≤5 and temperature was lower than 800 ℃. SmFe2-type structure could be stable up to 1000 ℃ when x〉3 and temperature was under 800 ℃. The content of SmFe2-type decreased with the increase of x value and increased with temperature lower than 800 ℃, from which SmFe2-type started to bring the transition to SmFe3-type. As for Sm5Fe17-type compounds with x=3.4, the highest coercivity of 33.6 kOe could be obtained under a velocity of 30 m/s and heat treated under 700 ℃×1h.展开更多

The annealed high Mn content Mn46Ni42Sn11Sb1 ribbon cross-section microstructure, crystal structure, martensitic transformation(MT), and magnetoresistance(MR) properties were investigated. The MR in the annealed ribbon was assessed by the magnetic field direction perpendicular to the ribbon surface with the magnetic field up to 30 k Oe. The large negative value of 25% for MR was obtained at 244 K. The exchange bias(EB) effects of the as-spun and annealed ribbons were investigated. After annealing, the EB effects have been improved by about 25 Oe at the temperature of 50 K. The magnetizations have increased approximately by 10% more than the as-spun ribbon.展开更多

Very large value of magnetic entropy change |ΔS|=31 and 35.4 J·(kg·K)-1 under 5 T were obtained at 201 K in LaFe11.8Si1.2 melt-spun ribbons and at around 317 K in Mn1.1Fe0.9P0.76Ge0.24 melt-spun ribbons, respectively. The large magnetocaloric effect results from a more homogenous element distribution related to the very high cooling rate during melt-spinning. The excellent MCE properties, the low materials cost and the accelerated aging regime make the melt-spun-type La(Fe,Si)13 and MnFePGe materials an excellent candidate for magnetic refrigerant applications.展开更多

When the wheel speed is 26 and 42 m/s, the as-spun ribbons are completely crystallized to the Ti-Ni B2 phase. The Ti-rich plate precipitates lying on {100} planes are observed in the as-spun ribbon fabricated with a wheel speed of 26 m/s. The spherical Ti2Ni precipitates are observed at grain boundaries in the as-spun ribbons fabricated with a wheel speed of 42 m/s. Amorphous and B2 phases coexist in the as-spun ribbon fabricated with a wheel speed of 52 m/s. The uniformity of grain size in heat treated ribbons decreases with increasing wheel speed.展开更多

XRD results indicate that the isothermal incubation time is 12, 5, and less than 5 min at 670, 700, and 730°C, respectively. High coercivities, with the maximum value of iHc = 1616 kA/m at 700°C for 19 min, measured by a physical property measurement system, are obtained in the crystallized ribbons. This is mainly attributed to the addition of Pr and Nb, because Pr2Fe14B has a higher anisotropic field than Nd2Fe14B, and Nb enriched in the grain boundary regions can not only reduce the exchange-coupling effects among hard grains, but also impede grain growth during the crystallization process. In addition, it should also be related to the characteristics of the furnace that the authors designed.展开更多

Compared with α-Fe/Y 2O 3 composites, the resonance frequency (f r) of α-Fe/Fe 3B/Y 2O 3 shifted to a higher frequency range due to the large anisotropy field (H A) of tetragonal Fe 3B (~0 4 mA·m -1). The relative permittivity (ε r=ε r′-jε r″) was constantly low over the 0 5~10 GHz region, which indicates that the composite powders have a high resistivity (ρ=~100 Ωm). The effective electromagnetic wave absorption (RL<-20 dB) was obtained in a frequency range of 2.7~6.5 GHz on resin composites of 80% (mass fraction) α-Fe/Fe 3B/Y 2O 3 powders, with thickness of 6~3 mm respectively. A minimum reflection loss of -33 dB was observed at 4.5 GHz with an absorber thickness of 4 mm.展开更多

The β phase exists in the as-spun fiber. The β phase content increases as the stretching ratio increases. When the stretching temperature is lower than 100 ℃ , enhancing temperature is good for the transition of phase a to ft. By contrast, when the stretching temperature is higher than 100 ℃ , enhancing temperature is unfavourable for the transition of phase a to β. Increasing the draw temperature increases the α-phase content.展开更多

The melt-spun Nd85Al15 alloy shows two-stage transformation processes as follows: amorphous+72 nm supersaturated bcc-Nd(AI) solid solution-7 nm omega-like phase-AINd3+hexagonal Nd. The activation energies for the first and second transformation were found to be 100 kj/mol and 188 kj/mol, respectively. The formation mechanism of nanoscale omega-like phase is discussed.展开更多

A new element to stabilize the metastable Co5Zr phase was found and the coercivity observed in Co-Zr alloys can be obviously enhanced by proper tungsten substitution. The Curie temperature of Co77Zr18W5 ribbons is 475℃ which suggests that W doped Co-Zr alloys may become an attractive candidate perma- nent magnets for practical applications in high temperature. Annealing of the Co77Zr18W5 ribbons results in a decrease of the coercivity which confirmed that the hard magnetic phase is Co5Zr phase in 77Zr18W5 melt-spun ribbons.展开更多

The XRD results indicate that the as cast alloy contains two Laves phases, C14 (15.45%) and C15 (76.48%), and the non Laves phase Zr 7M 10 (8.07%, M presents Ni, Mn, V). Meanwhile the melt spun alloy only has the C14 (27.67%) and C15 (69.43%) Laves phases. The electrochemical test indicates that the melt spun alloy has much better cycling stability ( S 500 =90.8%), higher discharge capacity ( C max =347.5 mA·h·g -1 ) than those of as cast alloy ( S 500 =80.9%, C max =340.8 mA·h·g -1 ), although its activation property and high rate dischargeability decrease somewhat. The different electrochemical properties between the melt spun and as cast alloys are resulted from the different phase composition, phase abundance and microstructure.展开更多
