Abstract

The effects of Cu-doping and heat-treatment on the structure and magnetic properties of ô-MnAl have been investigated. Copper stabilizes the structure of ô-MnAl and enhances the fraction of ô-phase while excess Cu (≥9 atm%) results in the formation of more ã- and/or â-phase. In comparison with the binary Mn-Al system, the Cu-doped ternary alloy is more insensitive to heat-treatment in structural transformation. Cu-doping usually decreases the saturation magnetization while a certain amount of Cu enhances the coercivity of the samples. The annealing time and temperature have a substantial effect on the magnetic properties of MnAl.
