Abstract :
Crystallization and magnetic behavior of
melt-spun Fe62Co10Si10B13Nb4TM1 amorphous ribbon
where TM = Ni, Cr, V, Pd, Pt, Ti, Ta and Zr were
examined. The alloy with Pt as transition metal showed
the lowest crystallization temperature of 823 K among
the studied alloys. Significant increase in crystallization
temperature was observed when the atomic radius of
the substituted transition metal was varied from that of
Pt. High Curie temperature and high saturation
magnetization were recognized for the alloys containing
Pd, Pt or Ti. The amorphous alloys except the
alloys containing Ti or V showed good soft magnetic
properties.
