Problems solved by technology

[0005] In addition, the rare earth gadolinium element has great chemical activity, and it is difficult to prepare it into nanoparticles. If you want to obtain a bulk material with nanocrystals, you must not only effectively prevent oxidation but also ensure that the material does not produce grains when it is prepared into a bulk material. grown up, and therefore, difficult to prepare

Abstract

The invention discloses a gadolinium block material and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following operation steps that firstly, metal gadolinium powder is used as the raw material and is ground through a mechanical milling method; secondly, the nanoscale gadolinium powder is placed in a die and pre-pressed in a pre-treatment chamber protected by argon; and thirdly, the die is placed in a spark plasma sintering device for sintering, and therefore the gadolinium block material is obtained. The preparation method is simple and practicable and can be used for preparing gadolinium block materials of different grain sizes; the average grain size of the material is adjustable within the range of 20-1000 nanometers, and the corresponding magnetothermal effect of the material within the grain size range is improved along with increase of the grain size of the prepared material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of room temperature magnetic refrigeration, and in particular relates to a gadolinium block material and a preparation method thereof. The method of the invention can prepare gadolinium bulk materials with different crystal grain sizes, so as to control the magnetocaloric effect of the gadolinium materials. Background technique [0002] For nano-scale rare earth metal elements, due to the reduction of their scale, the area of ​​the surface or grain boundary of the material increases sharply, so that it shows some new features in crystal structure, interface, thermodynamics, phase transition, etc., using these new These features ultimately enhance the optical, electrical, magnetic, mechanical and catalytic properties of the material. [0003] In recent years, room temperature magnetic refrigeration technology has become a research hotspot in the field of refrigeration technology due to its advantages of high...
