The field dependence of the magnetic entropy change (ΔSM) after mechanical alloying of Fe70Zr30 composition starting from high purity powders is studied. Samples with different shapes and different crystalline fraction X were analyzed. Although the results show that the proposed correction of the de...

| Sumario: | The field dependence of the magnetic entropy change (ΔSM) after mechanical alloying of Fe70Zr30 composition starting from high purity powders is studied. Samples with different shapes and different crystalline fraction X were analyzed. Although the results show that the proposed correction of the demagnetizing field has not a significant effect on ΔSM(T) curves (∼5% underestimation), it is necessary in order to properly analyze the field dependence of this magnitude (|ΔSM|=aHn). This correction allows recovering the theoretically predicted field dependence as well as a deeper analysis on multiphase systems. In fact, the biphasic character of the studied system changes the value of the field exponent n: it decreases below two above Curie temperature (TC), and it increases at TC. We show that, assuming a non-interacting phase model, it is possible to obtain the value of the exponent n for the main phase from the intercept of n vs X/ΔSM. |
