Structure, magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effect of Fe81-xCrx+4B2Zr10Nd3 rapidly quenched alloys

This paper presents, we present the structure, magnetic properties, and magnetocaloric effect of the Fe81-xCrx+4B2Zr10Nd3 (x = 0, 1, 2, and 3) alloy ribbons. The alloy ribbons were prepared by using the meltspinning method. Structural analysis by X-ray diffraction shows that the obtained alloy ribbons are almost amorphous.
