Abstract

The invention provides a bulk rare earth gadolinium-based composite amorphous material and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the metal material technical field. A chemical general formula is Gd55Co15Al30-xGex, wherein, x is more than 0 and less than or equal to 10. A main material is a bulk amorphous alloy body which is melted by Gd, Co, Al and Ge; and the main material also contains a Gd5Ge3 crystal primary phase. The preparation method comprises the following steps that: firstly, ingredients are smelted by an electric arc furnace to produce a master alloy of Gd55Co15Al30-xGex, and then the master alloy is subjected to suction casting and molding by a copper mold suction casting method to achieve a composite material which has the largest diameter of 10 mm and uses a bulk amorphous alloy as the substrate. The bulk rare earth gadolinium-based composite amorphous material provided by the invention has good thermal stability and application prospect in the aspects of a magnetic cooling functional material and a structural material. The method has the advantages of simple process, easy control of a material structure, etc.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metal materials, and relates to a magnetic composite amorphous alloy material, in particular to a gadolinium-based composite amorphous material and a preparation method thereof. technical background [0002] Compared with crystalline materials, amorphous materials are another structural state of solid matter. Amorphous materials include traditional glass, amorphous semiconductors, polymers, and amorphous metals and alloys. Amorphous substances are structurally disordered substances that do not have the periodic structure of crystalline substances. Under rapid cooling conditions, the atoms in the melt do not have time to form ordered crystals, but freeze the atoms arranged randomly in the liquid state to form a relatively stable disordered structure within a certain temperature range. In an amorphous solid, the arrangement of atoms is short-range ordered and long-range disordered. The special atomic str...
