Abstract:

Measurements of magnetic susceptibility in mechanically alloyed Fe-Ni Invar alloys were taken under pressures up to 7.5GPa. The rate of decrease in the Curie temperature for 700℃ annealed specimen was larger than that annealed at 1000℃. This result can be explained by considering the fact that the width of the concentration fluctuation becomes larger in the specimen annealed at lower temperature.

Key words: invar alloy, Fe-Ni, mechanical alloying, Curie temperature
