Notes:
A series of Co15(NixPd1−x)85, Co25(NixPd1−x)75, and Co35(NixPd1−x)65 alloys was made. Different thermal treatments were performed on these alloys: (1) furnance cooling from 1000 °C with −3 to −5 °C/min, (2) annealing at 750 °C in high vacuum for 23 h, and (3) salt water quenching from 800 and 900 °C, respectively. Properties measured include magnetization, electrical resistivity, magnetoresistance, and lattice constant. An order-disorder transformation is suggested indirectly in CoNi3 by some changes in the measured properties for samples subjected to different thermal treatments. All the changes observed are explained from the viewpoints of order-disorder transformation, textural structures, impurities, and other phenomena. The physical effect of replacing Ni by Pd is discussed briefly.
