In this study, the effect of particle size on the magneto-thermal properties of Gd5Si2Ge2 alloys was investigated. It is found that the alloy powders obtained via the milled processing conditions possess distinctly Magnetocaloric Effects (MCEs). The magnetic entropy change (ΔSM) of the milled Gd 5Si2Ge2 alloy powders for the 38.5-50 um arrives the maximum value of -ΔSM = 9.06 J·kg -1·K-1 for magnetic field change under 2.0 Tesla. The estimated Relative Cooling Power (RCP) for the 50-74 um powders is around 155.94 J kg-1, which increases 28%...
