Abstract

Magnetic measurements are reported for iron-rich ternary alloys with the following compositions: Fe₁₀Nd_xDy_1-xTi (0≤x≤1), Fe₁₀SmM (M=Ti, V, and Mo), and Fe₁₀RV (R=Y, Gd, and Dy). The samples were prepared by splat cooling or melt spinning and selected samples were heat treated. The results of x-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, and thermomagnetic measurements on the Fe₁₀Nd_xDy_1-xTi series are presented and indicate that the rapidly quenched alloys are nearly single phase and become multiphase upon heating. Magnetic measurements on the other two series show that the substitution of V for Ti increases the saturation magnetization.
