摘要
Differential thermal analysis was carried out for ferromagnetic material MnBi in the temperature range 300-773 K in magnetic fields up to 45T to investigate the effect of high magnetic fields on its decomposition process and corresponding phase diagram. The decomposition temperature T(t) (MnBi -> Mn(1.08)Bi + liquid Bi) increases from 632 K (at a zero field) to 714 K by applying a magnetic field of 45T. Furthermore, the magnetocaloric effect of MnBi is observed in 11.5-45T in the vicinity of 689 K, showing that a field-induced composition process occurs. The obtained results show that the equilibrium state of MnBi can be controlled by a high magnetic field. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
