Hydrogen Absorption and Magnetic Properties of HO2Fe14BHx Hydrides

Magnetic properties of the hydrides of an intermetallic compound Ho2Fe14B are studied in the temperature range 78 700 K. The temperature dependencies of magnetization σ (Т) are obtained under continuous control of the hydrogen content in the samples investigated. The dependence of the Curie (TC) and the spin-reorientation transition (TSR) temperatures on hydrogen pressure (P) and its concentration (x) are determined. The dependence of hydrogen concentration on pressure at constant temperatures (isotherms x (P)) in the vicinity of TC and the temperature variation of hydrogen concentration at a constant pressure (isobars x (T)) are investigated.
