The characteristics of the reactions between SmFe3 and H-2 or N2 were studied by isochorothermal analysis, X-ray diffraction and thermomagnetic analysis. SmFe3 absorbs about 3.1 atoms of hydrogen instantaneously at a temperature between 140 and 170-degrees-C. Subsequent cooling to room temperature causes an increase in the hydrogen concentration to about 4 hydrogen atoms per mole of SmFe3. As the temperature is increased, the SmFe3 hydride begins to desorb hydrogen and its composition becomes SmFe3H0.2 at about 350-degrees-C. The SmFe3 hydride desorbs and absorbs hydrogen reversibly in the temperature range 25-400-degrees-C, with a 16-degrees-C temperature hysteresis occurring between 249 and 233-degrees-C during heating and cooling. At about 425-degrees-C, the hydride begins to decompose into Sm hydride and alpha-Fe. The decomposition reaction is accompanied by a massive hydrogen absorption. The SmFe3 hydride has the rhombohedral crystal structure (same as the parent compound) with a 19% expanded lattice with parameters a = 5.378 angstrom and c = 27.345 angstrom. The stresses introduced by the huge lattice expansion cause the decrepitation of the SmFe3 hydride samples. The Curie temperature and saturation magnetization are 90-degrees-C and 70.8 e.m.u. g-1 for SmFe3H4 compared with 390-degrees-C and 80.6 e.m.u. g-1 for SmFe3. For both SmFe3 and SmFe3 hydride, the easy direction of magnetization is along the crystallographic c axis. SmFe3 powder reacts with N2 at about 250-degrees-C forming SmN, alpha-Sm and alpha-Fe. The final products are SmN and alpha-Fe. No interstitial SmFe3 nitride exists at any temperature.

Changing phase equilibria: A method for microstructure optimization and properties improvement in preparing anisotropic Sm2Fe17N3 powders
Sm2Fe17N3 compound possesses excellent intrinsic permanent magnet properties. Sm2Fe17N3 is usually produced by nitridation of the Sm2Fe17 alloy; however, it is difficult to avoid the formation of alpha-Fe and SmFe3 phases in the Sm-Fe system, which may have adverse effects on the magnetic properties of the final magnets. In this study, the three-phase region of SmCu + SmCu2 +Sm2Fe17 was determined experimentally and a partial isothermal section of the Sm-Fe-Cu phase diagram at 450 degrees C was established. Based on this newly determined three-phase region, a parent alloy free of alpha-Fe and SmFe3 phases was obtained and the effects of Sm-Cu assistant phases on the microstructure and magnetic properties of nitrided powder were investigated. Anisotropic Sm2Fe17N3 powders free of alpha-Fe and having a high (BH)(max) exceeding 31 MGOe and H-cj of 13.9 kOe were obtained using a parent alloy containing 3 at.% of Sm-Cu assistant phases. The magnetization reversal process of anisotropic Sm2Fe17N3 powders with and without alpha-Fe was investigated and the underlying mechanisms were analyzed. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Phase formation and crystal structure of Sm2Fe17−Ga compounds during hydrogen disproportionation and desorption recombination (HDDR-process)
Hydrogen disproportionation was applied to Sm2Fe17-yGay alloys with y=0, 1, 2 using a hydrogen pressure of up to 3 MPa. SmH2+x and b.c.c. (Fe,Ga) solid solution were formed. Ga is completely dissolved in the b.c.c. Fe. The phase formation was studied as a function of the recombination temperature in the range 600 degreesCless than or equal toT(R)less than or equal to850 degreesC. At first, metastable phases with the disordered hexagonal R1-sT5+2s structure (R=rare earth, T=transition metal) were formed. The atomic positions of the metastable structures were refined using the Rietveld method. In the disordered hexagonal Sm1-s(Fe,Ga)(5+2s) structure the Ga atom occupies randomly the atomic position (3g). The phase transformation of Sm1-sFe5+2s and Sm1-s(Fe,Ga)(5+2s) into the modified rhombohedral Th2Zn17 structure with partial order (denoted m-Sm2Fe17-yGay) starts at T-R greater than or equal to 700 degreesC and T-R greater than or equal to 750 degreesC, respectively. In the case of Sm2Fe15Ga2, the recombination leads to a phase mixture. A lower Ga concentration in the Th2Zn17 structure is observed after recombination compared to that in the initial state. A completely ordered Th2Zn17 structure is not observed after recombination. During recombination of SmH2+x+b.c.c. (Fe,Ga) solid solution at T-R=600degreesC, Ga3Sm5 and GaSm were formed predominantly.

Component interactions in the iron-molybdenum-samarium system at 773 K were studied by powder X-ray diffraction, microstructure observation, electron probe microanalysis, and hardness and microhardness testing. The formation of a ternary intermetallic compound. with a ThMn(12) structural type was found in this system. Binary intermetallc compounds were found to interact not only with one another to form two-phase equilibria (Fe(2)Mo + Fe(7)Mo(6), Sm(2)Fe(17) + SmFe(3), SmFe(3) + SmFe(2), and Fe(2)Mo(6) + SmFe(2)) but also with pure components (Fe + Fe(2)Mo, Fe + Sm(2)Fe(17), Mo + Fe(7)Mo(6), Sm + SmFe(2), and Sm + Fe(7)Mo(6)). Three-phase regions were also detected in the isothermal section of the diagram: Fe + Fe(2)Mo + psi, Fe(7)Mo(6) + Fe(2)Mo + psi, Fe(7)Mo(6) + SmFe(2) + psi, and SmFe(3) + SmFe(2) + psi.
