Abstract

The invention relates to a rare earth-nickel-boron-carbon based magnetic material for low-temperature magnetic refrigeration and a preparation method thereof. The magnetic material has the chemical general formula of RNiBC, wherein R is rare earth metals Gd, Tb, Dy or Er, and the magnetic material has the structure of a tetragonal crystal, and belongs to a P4/ nmm space group. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: firstly, mixing rare earth metals Tb, Gd, Dy or Er and Ni, B and C in proportion into raw materials, putting the raw materials in a smelting container, and repeatedly smelting under the protection of argon, to obtain an alloy cast ingot with even components; sealing the smelted alloy cast ingot in a vacuum quartz container, annealing at high temperature, and quickly cooling to normal temperature, to obtain a finished product. The rare earth-nickel-boron-carbon material provided by the invention not only is large in magnetic entropy change nearby the respective phase-transition temperature, but also is good in magnetic/thermal reversible properties, thereby being an ideal low-temperature refrigeration material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of materials science and relates to a magnetic functional material, in particular to a rare earth-nickel-boron-carbon-based magnetic material for low-temperature magnetic refrigeration and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Magnetic refrigeration is a non-polluting refrigerant material that uses the magnetic entropy effect of magnetic materials (that is, the magnetocaloric effect, also known as the magnetic card effect or magnetocaloric effect) to achieve refrigeration. Magnetic refrigeration is considered a "green" refrigeration method that does not emit any harmful gases such as Freon, and is expected to replace the energy-intensive and environmentally harmful gas compression refrigeration methods currently in use. Compared with the best existing refrigeration system, magnetic refrigeration can consume 20-30% less energy, and neither destroys the ozone layer nor emits greenhouse ga...
