哈斯勒合金Ni-Mn-Sn的马氏体相变与反磁热性质

通过结构以及磁性测量,研究了哈斯勒合金Ni₅₀Mn_25+xSn_25-x (x=11,12)的马氏体相变和磁热性质.结果表明,与样品在奥氏体相的磁性不同,由于在马氏体相中反铁磁交换作用的增强,导致铁磁和反铁磁在马氏体状态下共存.此外,通过Maxwell方程,研究了两样品在不同磁场变化下马氏体相变温度附近的反磁热性质,并阐明了该系列合金产生大的正磁熵变(ΔS_M)不仅与其在降温过程中发生马氏体相变所导致的磁跃变(ΔM)有关,而且与发生马氏体相变所经历的温度区间有密切的联系. 关键词： 哈斯勒合金 Ni-Mn-Sn 马氏体相变 正磁熵变     

Martensitic transformation and giant magnetic entropy change in Ni_(42.8)Mn_(40.3)Co_(5.7)Sn_(11.2) alloy

The crystal structure, phase transition, and magnetocaloric effect in Ni42.8Mn40.3Co5.7Sn11.2 alloy are investigated by structure analysis and magnetic measurements. A large magnetic entropy change of 45.6 J/kg.K is obtained at 215 K under a magnetic field of 30 kOe （1 Oe = 79.5775 A.m-1）. The effective refrigerant capacity of Ni42.8Mn40.3Co5.7Sn11.2 alloy reaches 72.1 J/kg under an applied field changing from 0 to 30 kOe. The external magnetic field shifts the martensitic transition temperature about 3-4 K/10 kOe towards low temperature, indicating that magnetic field can retard the phase transition to a certain extent. The origin of large magnetic entropy change is discussed in the paper.
