New design of La(Fe, Co, Si)13 magnetocaloric composites using Gd as a binder

We propose a new type of magnetocaloric composite that excludes the conventional use of non-magnetocaloric materials as the binder. Spark plasma sintering was adopted to make a fully dense La(Fe, Co, Si)13/Gd composite at low temperatures (450–600 °C), which shows relatively high thermal conductivit...
