MnBi with low temperature phase was fabricated by melt-spinning and subsequently annealing. The influence of quenching speeds, compositions and annealing conditions on the formation of low temperature phase MnBi was systematically investigated. It was found the amorphous MnBi ribbons could transform into low temperature phase by heat treatment in a temperature range of 533–593 K. The coercivity of MnBi was greatly improved by porphyrization, and exhibited a positive temperature coefficient. The maximum energy product BHmax of the anisotropic bonded magnet is 7.1 MGOe (56 kJ/m3) and 4.0 MGOe (32 kJ/m3) at room temperature and 400 K.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
