As a part of these experimental investigations of melt-spun Nd-Fe-B alloy with Nd rich content in relation to Nd2Fe14B prepared by rapid quenching process for optimally selected cooling rate and heat treatment, the influence of the chosen chemical composition on magnetic properties was observed. The results of X-ray diffraction, Mössbauer spectroscopy phase analysis and magnetic measurement of investigated melt-spun Nd14.5Fe78.5B7 alloy are presented to bring some new information concerning the relation between their structure and magnetic properties

Contrast materials have very great role in many medical areas. Considering modern medical diagnostic techniques and the significance of the solution to the therapy (or surgery) tasks, the questions on precise medical images of high resolution are very important. The high resolution (especially if the image serves further for the numerical processing and analysis is certainly of significances as well as the material for recording or other assisting tasks. The contrasts material for the processes of magnetic resonance (or NMR) and analysis of their performances in the form of initial powder material with super paramagnetic performances are presented in this paper

The crystallization process of the Co84Fe5.3Si8.5B2.2 amorphous alloy examined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) exhibits three exothermal steps at Tcr1=649K, Tcr2=800K, and Tcr3=838K. The rate constants of the first relaxation process (determined at 598K and 623K) are k1=5*10-4 s and k2=8*10-4 s and the corresponding activation energy Ea1=26.23 kJ/mol. The data for the relaxation process before the second crystallization step (determined at 683K and 713K) are k3=14.5*10-4 s and k4=17.5*10-4 s and the corresponding activation energy Ea2=60.0 kJ/mol. The process of structural relaxation in non-isothermal and isothermal conditions was studied by analysis of the results of measurements of the thermo electromotive force (TEMF). From the change of the temperature coefficient of TEMF that follows each annealing process, the relative electronic state density changes at the Fermi level were determined: ΔN21/N2=5,45%, ΔN22/N2=5,76%, ΔN23/N2=7,57% and ΔN24/N2=9,85%
