Abstract

The Fe–Nb–B and Fe71.5Cr2Si13.5B9Nb3Cu1 alloys have been prepared by rapid quenching from the melt, and the magnetic properties of alloys in the vicinity of the magnetic ordering have been studied before and after thermomechanical processing. It has been shown that change in the Fe:Nb:B ratio allows tuning the magnetic ordering temperature and the position of maximum of the isothermal magnetic entropy change \( \left| { - \Delta S_{m} } \right| \) from 256 to 333 K. The thermomechanical treatment of alloys at 623 K under applied tensile stresses observed does not affect remarkably the magnetocaloric properties of alloys. The combination of high thermomechanical stability, good electrical, anti-corrosive and thermomagnetic properties makes these alloys promising for use in magnetic refrigeration devices.
