Zusammenfassung:Cast alloys and melt-spun ribbons with nominal compositions of Sm(Co/sub bal/Fe/sub 0.31/Zr/sub 0.05/Cu/sub 0.04/B/sub x/)/sub z/ (x=0.02-0.04,z=7.5-12) have been synthesized and characterized in a temperature range of 10-1273 K and at fields up to 5T. The main phase in the as-cast alloys exhibited a Th/sub 2/Ni/sub 17/ type structure, with a strong uniaxial anisotropy. Minor phases with a TbCu/sub 7/ and/or CaCu/sub 5/ structure emerged as z (3d/R) decreased. As a result, the anisotropy field (H/sub A/) increased from 67 to 120 kOe, while 4/spl pi/M/sub s/ fell from 12.8 to 10.5 kG at 300 K when z was decreased from 12 to 7.5. For melt-spun ribbons, they are nano-structured in nature and magnetically hard, even in the as-spun state. By lowering the value of z(3d/R) and raising the B content, a finer microstructure and a higher H/sub ci/ were obtained. Hard magnetic properties of H/sub ci/=4.9-12 kOe, 4/spl pi/M/sub s/=9.0-12.0 kG at 300 K have been obtained from ribbon samples. Among them, Sm(Co/sub bal/Fe/sub 0.31/Zr/sub 0.05/Cu/sub 0.04/B/sub 0.02/)/sub 10/ ribbon showed the highest (BH)/sub max/ of 10.8 MGOe at 300 K. A Henkel plot analysis suggested the existence of exchange-coupling interaction between the magnetically hard and soft phases in the ribbon materials.
