Hard magnetic Sm2 Co17 nanoflakes with thickness of 20-100 nm were obtained by milling in heptane and oleic acid under a magnetic field of 1.5 T for 0.5-20 h. It was shown that higher anisotropic magnetic properties would be induced by the flake-shape anisotropy when the prepared Sm2 Colt particles are milled with a magnetic field. The magnetic anisotropy of flakes after being aligned under the magnetic field of 1.5 T could be further enhanced, and the value of (BH)m was 128 kJ · m a Both anisotropy and properties are better than those of the nano-particles milled without a magnetic field.展开更多

A nonlinear magnetostrictive model of giant magnetostrictive materials was proposed. The proposed model can be used to calculate the magnetostrictive characterization of giant magnetostrictive materi- als in different temperatures and under different stresses. The coupling effects of axial stress, magnetic field, and temperature on the magnetostriction of a Terfenol-D rod were numerically simulated as well as experimentally tested. Comparison between the calculating and experimental results shows that the proposed model can better describe the magneto-thermo-mechanical characteristics of Terfenol-D rod under different temperatures and compressive stress. Therefore, the proposed model possesses an important significance for the design of magnetostrictive devices.展开更多

The Fe304/maifanite composites were characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM, and TEM. These results indicated that polycrystalline Fe304 NPs with inverse spinel structure were formed and tightly dispersed on maifanite surface. Based on the measurement of surface Zeta potential of maifanite at different medium pHs, the possible combination mechanism between natural maifanite and Fe304 NPs was proposed. Then, the as- obtained composites were developed as highly efficient heterogeneous Fenton-like catalyst for the discoloration of an azo dye, Methyl Orange (MO). The comparative tests on MO discoloration in different systems revealed that Fe304/maifanite composite exhibited much higher Fenton-like catalytic activity than Fe304 NPs and the heterogeneous Fenton- like reaction governed the discoloration of MO. Kinetic results clearly showed that MO discoloration process followed the second-order kinetic model. Fe304/maifanite compo- sites exhibited the typical ferromagnetic property detected by VSM and could be easily separated from solution by an external magnetic field.展开更多
