Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

La(Fe,Si)13 alloys display a giant magnetocaloric effect when a magnetic field is applied near the Curie temperatureT C. However, to use these alloys for domestic refrigeration based on magnetic cooling, it is vital to increase T C near to the room-temperature range while simultaneously maintaining a large magnetocaloric effect. With this aim, we studied the effect of interstitialcarbon on the microstructure and magnetocaloric effect in LaFe11.6Si1.4C x (x = 0–0.4). The investigation was carried out in cast samples annealed for seven days at 1323 K. The study of microstructure shows that annealing led to about 90 wt. % of 1:13 magnetocaloric phase. Magnetization data revealed that the addition of carbon leads to an increase in T C and a decrease of the thermal hysteresis width. For x > 0.2, the magnetic transition changes from first-order to second-order, with a corresponding reduction in magnetocaloric effect. A small amount of C (x up to 0.2) improves the magnetocaloric properties of the parent alloy La(Fe,Si)13, and, furthermore, the carbon addition leads to an increase in the thermal stability of hydrided LaFe11.6Si1.4C x . The onset of hydrogen desorption increases from 460 K for the x = 0 (carbon-free alloy) to 500 K and 540 K, respectively, for x = 0.1 and x = 0.2.
