A bimodal particle size distribution enhances mechanical and magnetocaloric properties of low-temperature hot pressed Sn-bonded La0.8Ce0.2(Fe0.95Co0.05)11.8Si1.2 bulk composites

We report a Sn-bonded La0.8Ce0.2(Fe0.95Co0.05)11.8Si1.2 bulk composite with improved mechanical and magnetocaloric properties. La0.8Ce0.2(Fe0.95Co0.05)11.8Si1.2 powders with a bimodal particle size distribution were mixed with a binder of Sn powder and hot pressed at a relatively low temperature of...
