Abstract:
Rare-earth transition-metal (R-T) intermetallic compounds with planar magnetocrystalline anisotropy exhibit enhanced high-frequency magnetic properties and superior microwave absorption performance compared to compounds with uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy, due to their higher Snoek limit resulting from high saturation magnetization (Ms) and large anisotropy factor. In this work, we investigated the structure, magnetic, and microwave absorbing properties of Y2Fe17-xSix (0≤x≤2) with planer anisotropy and their paraffin composites. Neutron powder diffraction (NPD) indicates that Y2Fe17-xSix compounds all possess a disordered Th2Ni17-type hexagonal structure as the primary phase, and the preferential order for Si substituting Fe crystallographic sites is: 12k, 6g, 12j1, 12j2, 4f, and 4e. At room temperature (RT), the 57Fe Mössbauer spectra reveal that the average hyperfine field increases with increasing Si content, which is proportional to the average atomic magnetic moment of Fe. Magnetic measurements show that Si substitution significantly raises the Curie temperature (Tc) of Y2Fe17-xSix compounds, while also increasing the Ms at RT. By studying the high-frequency electromagnetic properties of Y2Fe17-xSix/paraffin composites, it was found that the real part of permittivity (ɛ′) at 1 GHz decreases with increasing Si content, reducing by approximately 40% for x=2 compared to x=0. Meanwhile, the real part of permeability (μ′) at 1 GHz initially increases and then decreases with increasing Si content, reaching a maximum at x=1.5. Therefore, Si substitution is advantageous to enhance the impedance matching of the composites, leading to better microwave absorption performance. Among all the compositions, the Y2Fe15Si2/paraffin composite exhibits a minimum reflection loss (RL) of -53.3 dB with a thickness of 3.0 mm, and a maximum effective absorption bandwidth (EAB, RL © 2025 Elsevier B.V.
