Abstract
Herein, MnBi alloys are prepared using melt spinning and magnetic-field annealing techniques, and the effects of magnetic-field annealing on the microstructure, magnetic properties, magnetisation behaviour, and corrosion resistance of MnBi are systematically investigated. The results show that the saturation magnetisation (Ms) of the Mn55Bi45 ribbons increases with increasing magnetic field annealing temperature and time. Annealing above Curie temperature (Tc) enhances the intrinsic coercivity (Hcj) of the MnBi alloy. Moreover, Mn55Bi45 ribbons with a (BH)max of 2.15 MGOe at room temperature are successfully fabricated after annealing at 673 K for 20 min. The first-order reversal curve (FORC) demonstrate that the Mn55Bi45 ribbons after magnetic-field annealing exhibits weaker exchange coupling compared with the Mn55Bi45 ribbons after nonmagnetic-field annealing. Additionally, the corrosion rate of the Mn55Bi45 ribbons after magnetic-field annealing is lower than that of the Mn55Bi45 ribbons after nonmagnetic-field annealing. Finally, the changes in the grain size and content of the MnBi phase are investigated.
