摘要
Nanostruttured Mn2Ga alloys with the majority D0(22) phase have been prepared by subjecting ball-milled powders with micron size grains to the supercritical conditions of fluids at high pressure of 850 psi and temperature of 250 degrees C. The use of supercritical fluids was found to lead to a reduction of grain size from microscale to nanoscale. The supercritically treated samples show a homogeneous microstructure with an average grain size of 35 nm. The magnetic:properties Show an enhancement of magnetization and coercivity with values M-s and H-c of 55 emu/g and 4.7 kOe, respectively. This new method of, enhancing the coercive field by a factor of more than two via the reduction Of grain size to nanoscale opens new routes for rare-earth-free permanent magnet development.
