Transmission electron microscopy(TEM) observation finds that the particle sizes are about 40-50nm and 80-100nm, and the Tc are 285.1K and 285.9K, MCE are about 2.02J/(kg·K-1 ) and 3.90J/(kg·K-1 ) at 5T magnetic field. A relatively large MCE with a broad peak around Curie temperature is observed in sample sintered at 800℃ for 10h.
