Magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of (Gd,Nd)5Si4 compounds

•Bulk polycrystalline (Gd, Nd)5Si4 compounds were studied and the influence of Gd/Nd concentration determined.•Evidence of the alignment between rare earth ions sublattices though magnetic characterization.•Magnetocaloric properties were assessed via the isothermal entropy change and the refrigerant...
