High-field magnetization measurements have been performed on both free-powder samples and magnetically aligned samples of R͑Fe,Mn͒ 11 Ti ͑RϭY, Nd, Sm, Gd, Er͒ compounds at 4.2 K in a step field up to 28 T. The temperature dependence of ac susceptibilities of R͑Fe,Mn͒ 11 Ti has been measured in a temperature range from 4.2 to 800 K. It has been found that both the magnetic moment of the transition-metal sublattice and the Curie temperature of RFe 11Ϫx Mn x Ti compounds decrease with increasing x. Spin reorientations occur in ErFe 11Ϫx Mn x Ti compounds as the result of competition between the uniaxial anisotropy of the transition-metal sublattice and the planar or conical anisotropy of the Er sublattice. The intersublattice exchange constants n RT of ErFe 11Ϫx Mn x Ti compounds have been deduced by the high-field free-powder method. The effect of the substitution of Fe by Mn on the magnetic anisotropies of R͑Fe,Mn͒ 11 Ti with RϭY, Nd, Sm has been investigated. First-order magnetization processes take place in SmFe 11Ϫx Mn x Ti compounds when the external field is applied perpendicular to the alignment direction.
