Soft-Magnetic High-Entropy AlCoFeMnNi Alloys with Dual-Phase Microstructures Induced by Annealing

The simultaneous enhancement of magnetic and mechanical properties is desirable but challenging for soft-magnetic materials.A fabrication strategy to meet this requirement is therefore in high demand.Herein,bulk equiatomic dual-phase AlCoFeMnNi high-entropy alloys were fabricated via a magnetic levitation induction melting and casting process followed by annealing at 700-1000℃,and their microstructures as well as mechanical and magnetic properties were investigated.The as-cast alloy possessed a single metastable B2-ordered solid solution that decomposed upon annealing into a dual-phase structure comprising an Al-and Ni-rich body-centered cubic(BCC) matrix and Fe-and Mn-rich face-centered cubic(FCC)precipitates both in the grain interior and along the grain boundaries.The magnetic and mechanical properties were closely related to the relative volume fraction of FCC in the alloy.The FCC volume fraction could be increased by increasing the annealing temperature,thereby offering tunable properties.The optimal annealing temperature for balanced magnetic and mechanical properties was found to be 800℃.The alloy annealed at this temperature had an average BCC grain size of 12±3μm and FCC volume fraction of 41±4%.Correspondingly,the s aturation magnetization and coercivity reached 82.57 Am~2/kg and 433 A/m,respectively.The compressive yield strength and fracture strength were 1022 and 2539 MPa,respectively,and the plasticity was 33%.Owing to its adjustable microstructure and properties,the AlCoFeMnNi alloy has potential for use as a multi-functional soft-magnetic material.     

退火工艺对Fe-36Ni因瓦合金热轧板组织及性能的影响

通过金相显微组织分析及力学性能测试,研究了退火温度(900、950、1 000℃)及退火时间(5、7、9、11 min)对Fe-36Ni因瓦合金热轧板组织及性能的影响,并通过扫描电镜对断口形貌进行了观察。结果表明,随着退火温度的升高和保温时间的延长,奥氏体晶粒逐渐长大,并伴有少量的退火孪晶,材料的塑韧性提高,拉伸时发生典型的韧性断裂。经900℃退火后,其综合力学性能优于其它温度下处理的合金,且合金的晶粒分布比较均匀,并在保温时间为7 min时,具有最佳的综合力学性能。结合现场生产技术要求,退火温度为900℃、保温时间为7 min的热处理工艺最适合Fe-36Ni因瓦合金热轧板的后续轧制生产过程。     

Structural and magnetic properties of the gas atomized Mn-Al alloy powders

Ferromagnetic Mn-Al powders were produced by a gas-atomization method followed by heating treatment. The gas-atomized powders were ?-phase, which is a high temperature phase in the Mn-Al system. The ?-τ phase transformation took place by subsequent heat treatment at temperatures from 500 to 700 °C. The gas-atomized powders with a smaller particle size formed the τ-phase faster and thus exhibited better magnetic properties. On the other hand, the annealing temperature and time similarly played important roles in determining the magnetic properties of the products. The Mn-Al powders of 25–38 μm annealed at 550 °C for 120 min exhibited a high coercivity of 3.2 kOe with a remanence of 38 emu/g.     

Microstructures and magnetic properties of hydrogenation disproportionation desorption recombination-processed Nd–Fe–B materials with different Nd content of 11.0 and 12.6 at.%

The hydrogenation disproportionation desorption recombination (HDDR) process was performed on the generally used alloy composition of Nd_12.6Fe_63.1Co_17.4Zr_0.1Ga_0.3B_6.5 and a low rare earth content alloy composition of Nd_11.0Fe_65.0Co_17.8Zr_0.1Ga_0.3B_5.8. A detailed evaluation was made of the relationship between the microstructure and magnetic properties of these HDDR-processed magnetic powders with respect to their different rare earth element concentrations. The HDDR-processed powders of both alloy compositions were transformed to the Nd₂Fe₁₄B phase consisting of fine recombined crystal grains of around 400–500 nm in size and maintained the anisotropic magnetic characteristic that was present before HDDR processing. However, reduction of the rare earth content drastically reduced coercivity, and the alloy composition of Nd_11.0Fe_65.0Co_17.8Zr_0.1Ga_0.3B_5.8 did not manifest magnetic properties. From the results of an examination of their microstructures, it was inferred that the coercivity decreased due to a decline in the concentration of the rare earth element at the grain boundaries of the fine Nd₂Fe₁₄B grains with the reduction of the rare earth content of the alloys. Accordingly, in magnetic powders obtained by the HDDR process, the nucleation type of coercivity mechanism predominates, in which rare earth-rich regions present at the grain boundaries of fine Nd₂Fe₁₄B grains play a large role in the manifestation of coercivity.     

Structural,IR, and Magnetic Studies of Annealed Li-Ferrite Nanoparticles

Nanoparticles of spinel Li-ferrite, Li_0.5Fe_2.5O₄, were prepared by sol-gel autocombustion technique and annealed at different temperatures (T _a = 673, 873, and 1073 K), i.e., at relatively low annealing temperatures to control the crystallite size. The saturation magnetization (M _s) increased, and the surface area decreased by increasing the crystallite size, while Curie temperature (T _C) remained almost constant. The critical crystallite size (D _s), 74 nm, which corresponds to a maximum value of coercivity was determined. Samples with crystallite sizes ≤ D _s had low initial permeability μ_i, while the other samples lying in the multidomain region showed very high μ_i values indicating a reversible domain wall displacement mechanism. Hence, the crystallite size plays an important role in changing the physical and magnetic properties of Li-ferrite.     

Enhanced sintering of an Fe-Ni-P coated composite powder prepared by electroless nickel plating

An Fe-8.2 % Ni-6.0 % P powder was prepared by electroless nickel plating on a carbonyl iron powder, where phosphorous appeared as a contaminant of the plating process. Because of the high phosphorous concentration, persistent liquid phase sintering was effective at temperatures higher than 1000 °C. The sintered microstructure was dramatically different from the conventional approaches, where a low concentration of phosphorous was added in the form of Fe₃P. Sintering the alloy at a temperature as low as 1050 °C for 30 min yielded a sintered density of 98.6% theoretical and rounded grains having an average grain size of 53 μm. The rounded grains were surrounded by a large volume fraction of intergranular (Fe,Ni)₃P phase, arising from the high phosphorous concentration, which slightly deteriorated the magnetic saturation but significantly increased the electrical resistivity of the alloy. Generally speaking, the magnetic saturation of the sintered alloy was improved with respect to the iron-phosphorus, iron-nickel, or iron-silicon alloys fabricated by powder processing.     

纳米晶(FeCo)78Nb6B15Cu1合金晶化过程及其磁特性研究

采用熔体快淬法制备(FeCo)78Nb6B15Cu1非晶薄带,通过DSC测试薄带的晶化特性,并据此在400,500,700和750℃进行1h退火处理。用XRD和SEM分析薄带在不同退火温度下的晶化行为,并用VSM测试薄带与粉体的静态磁参数。结果表明:对于固定成分的Hitperm合金,选择合适的退火温度,可控制晶粒大小和晶相比例。由于晶粒表面无序磁矩含量的变化,导致材料比饱和磁化强度发生变化,同时更小的纳米晶粒对降低矫顽力有利。由于淬态引入的微量结晶,薄带存在表面晶化现象,这在一定程度上会恶化材料的静态磁特性。

采用铜模吸铸法制备Nd56Fe30Al10Dy4大块非晶合金,利用差示扫描量热仪(DSC)、振动样品磁强计(VSM)、X射线衍射仪(XRD)和扫描电镜(SEM)研究了该合金晶化过程中磁性及微观结构的变化。结果表明,铸态下合金表现为明显的硬磁性,在765 K退火后,合金中有少量晶态相产生,内禀矫顽力和饱和磁化强度略有下降。随着退火温度升高,合金中晶态相的相对含量逐渐增加,非晶相的相对含量逐渐减少,饱和磁化强度逐渐降低,但其内禀矫顽力变化不大。810 K退火后,合金完全晶化,铁磁性消失。结合合金的磁性能、微观结构、铁磁交换耦合作用的结果分析,Nd基大块非晶合金的矫顽力来源于合金中非晶相,但非晶相的相对含量却对矫顽力影响不大,这可以用强钉扎机制进行解释。

New Fe-based soft magnetic amorphous alloys with high saturation magnetization and good corrosion resistance for dust core application

Fe-rich amorphous dust core alloys with minor-addition of Mo and/or Cr were synthesized because of the industrial request of mass production of high efficient low core loss Fe-based dust cores. It was found that the present Fe-(Cr, Mo)-P-B-Si-(C) amorphous alloy ribbons exhibit good soft magnetic properties of above 1.5 T for saturation magnetization, below 10 A/m for coercivity and rather good corrosion resistance in 3%NaCl aqueous solution. Besides, the amorphous alloy ribbons exhibit good bending ductility in as-spun and optimally annealed states. It is noticed that these characteristics are much superior to those for commercial Fe-Cr-Nb-P-B-Si soft magnetic dust core alloy (SENNTIX). In addition, the annealing treatment was noticed to cause the improvement of corrosion resistance without detriment to bending ductility. The new Fe-based soft magnetic alloys with good combined characteristics are expected to be used as the basic material as high-efficient soft magnetic dust cores in a high frequency range.     

Magnetic anisotropy in Fe-25Cr-12Co-1Si alloy induced by external magnetic field

Structural and magnetic properties of Fe-25Cr-12Co-1Si alloy thermo-magnetically treated under different external magnetic field conditions were investigated. Orientation and morphology of the ferromagnetic α1 phase embedded in α2 phase matrix before and after step ageing are characterized by transmission electron microscope（TEM）. The results show that the ellipsoidal particles of ferromagnetic al phase are aligned along the direction of external magnetic field during isothermal magnetic ageing. Approximately 28% of the total coercivity can be attributed to the shape anisotropy of al phase particles induced by external magnetic field for Fe-25Cr-12Co-1Si alloy thermo-magnetically treated with a parallel magnetic field.     

High coercivity in Sm5Fe17 melt-spun ribbon

Sm–Fe binary alloy with the hard magnetic Sm₅Fe₁₇ phase was produced by melt-spinning followed by heat treatment. The magnetic properties of the Sm–Fe melt-spun ribbon depended on the annealing temperature. The highest coercivity, _iH_c = 1.90 MA m⁻¹, was obtained by annealing the Sm–Fe melt-spun ribbon for 1 h at 923 K. The coercivity of the Sm₅Fe₁₇ melt-spun ribbon was attributed to the grain size of the hard magnetic Sm₅Fe₁₇ phase.

Determination of lattice parameters, diffracting crystallite size, and thermal stability in mechanically alloyed Cu-Zn solid solutions

Four copper-zinc (Cu-Zn) alloy powders are produced by mechanical alloying to investigate the effects of zinc composition on the lattice parameter, diffracting crystallite size (DCS), and thermal stability. The DCS versus either milling time or composition data indicates that the substitutional zinc solutes alter the dislocation generation, organization, and recovery processes. Lattice parameter determinations agree well with published values at small compositions, but are slightly less than the expected values for larger compositions. Annealing the powders at 823 and 1023 K for 6 h resulted in a substantial decrease of rootmean-square (rms) atomic-level strain and slight increases in the lattice parameters. In spite of the high annealing temperatures, the DCS remains less than 30 nm for all compositions. Furthermore, this high degree of thermal stability was inversely related to the concentration of zinc in the alloy.     

The influence of residual stress and crystallite size on the magnetic properties of electrodeposited nanocrystalline Pd-Co alloys

Nanocrystalline Pd-Co alloys were obtained by electrodeposition from an ammoniacal chloride bath. The influence of the crystallite size and the residual stress on the magnetic properties of the alloys was investigated. The residual stress increased as the applied current density was increased. It was associated to the high nucleation rate during electrodeposition and correlated to the lattice strain, estimated from the XRD patterns. Also from the XRD patterns the average crystallite size and the lattice constant were determined by Scherrer's and Rietveld's methods, respectively. Both parameters were directly influenced by the applied current density. Magnetic properties such as coercivity, remanence, saturation magnetization and squareness showed strong dependence on the residual stress and crystallite size. Coercivity higher than 1 kOe was achieved when a high current density was applied. High coercivity was attributed to the presence of residual stress and to the small crystallite size of deposits.

Effect of annealing on the structural properties of AlN thin films containing Co particles

This paper describes a new approach for preparing AlN thin films containing various Co contents by using a two-facing targets type sputtering system. The as-deposited films exhibited a variable nature expected from the AlN-rich phase, as well as an amorphous-like phase, depending on the Co content in the films. The films were annealed isothermally at different temperatures and their microstructure, magnetic properties and resistivity were examined. The saturation magnetization of the as-deposited films was quite small and almost constant, irrespective of the Co content in the films, because Co was not in the crystalline state. At elevated annealing temperatures, the as-deposited AlN-Co amorphous films crystallized into two phases of AlN and Co. The saturation magnetization and resistivity of the films increased with increasing annealing time and temperature. The coercivity of the films was independent of the annealing time, but it increased with increasing annealing temperature due to the increase in grain size. A saturation magnetization, coercivity and resistivity of 360 emu/cm³, ～25 Oe and 2200 μΩ-cm, respectively, were obtained. Further improvement in the soft magnetic properties might lead to this material being applied as a high density magnetic recording head material.
