The influence of Fe addition on thermal stability, crystallography, and magnetic properties τ-Mn51Al47C2 was investigated. Alloys with composition Mn51-xFexAl47C2 (x = 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4) were synthesized by mechanical alloying method. High purity τ-Mn(Fe)AlC up to 98% could be obtained after 10 h milling, then annealed at 1050 °C for 1 h, followed an aging process appropriate temperatures from 51...
