Abstract
The La0.8-xGdxSr0.2MnO3 (x = 0.00,0.05,0.075,0.10) manganites were synthesized by the Pechini sol-gel method. The effects of doping Gd3+ on the structure, morphology and magnetic and magnetocaloric properties were investigated. The GSAS refinement showed that the Mn-O bond length and Mn-O-Mn bond angle changed, with the increase of Gd3+ replacement, shifting the TC near room temperature. The samples exhibited second-order phase transition near TC. The maximum magnetic entropy change ΔSM of the samples were 4.06 J kg−1K−1, 4.26 J kg−1K−1, 4.23 J kg−1K−1, and 3.59 J kg−1K−1 at an applied magnetic field of 5 T. The TC of the samples was 295 K at a doping level of 0.075, which was very close to room temperature. The relative cooling power RCP of La0.725Gd0.075Sr0.2MnO3 was 116.40 J kg−1 at an applied magnetic field of 2 T. All evidence indicated that La0.725Gd0.075Sr0.2MnO3 was potentially promising for magnetic applications.

Highlights
-
The La0.8-xGdxSr0.2MnO3 manganites were synthesized by the Pechini sol–gel method.
-
As the TC close to room temperature, the ΔSM always remains at a stable value.
-
TC of La0.725Gd0.075Sr0.2MnO3 was 295 K and RCP is 116.40 J•kg−1 at an applied magnetic field of 2 T.
