Abstract

In this work the investigation of structure and magnetic properties of SmCo7.5Fe3.09Cu0.84Zr0.3 and SmCo7.52Fe3.01Cu0.84Zr0.28 melt-spun ribbons with high cobalt content after different heat treatments was performed. The phase composition and magnetic properties of the samples were determined. Isothermal aging at 600-800 °C with subsequent slow cooling leads to the slight increase in coercivity of the samples. After arc-melting the phase composition of the samples is hexagonal Sm2Co17 and CoFe. After melt-spinning a small amount of the disordered SmCo7 phase is detected. After aging metastable SmCo7 disappears, and the phase structure is basically hexagonal phase Sm2Co17 and CoFe, except a tiny amount of SmCo5 and rhombohedral Sm2Co17 after aging at 800 °C. Magnetic properties of the samples are relatively low because the phases, essential for the high-coercive state in these alloys, do not form during applied heat treatments.
