Abstract

Mechanical alloying (MA) and subsequent solid sintering process was used to prepare the Nd-containing magnetostrictive Tb0.4Nd0.6-(Fe0.8Co0.2)1.90 alloy. The structure, thermal stability and phase transformation were investigated as functions of composition, milling process and annealing temperature. An amorphous phase was formed by high-energy ball milling for 5 h with the ball-to-powder weight ratio of 20:1, which crystallized into MgCu2-type and PuNi3-type crystalline structure with different annealing temperatures. The magnetoelastic properties were investigated by means of a standard strain technique. The high Nd-content (Tb,Nd)(Fe,Co)2 Laves phase for the composition Tb0.4Nd0.6(Fe0.8Co0.2)1.90 was synthesized by MA process plus annealing at 500 °C for 30 min.
