Abstract
The magnetic properties of MgZn2-type Zr(Cr1-xFex)2 (0.3≤x≤0.7) and Zr(Cr1-xFex)2Hy (y approximate 3) alloys have been investigated. Arrott plots showed no evidence for ferromagnetic ordering. ZFC/FC magnetization and Moessbauer spectroscopic data indicated spin glass-like freezing. Saturation moments in the unhydrided alloys decreased with decreasing Fe concentration, vanishing for x≈0.3. Hydrogen absorption made magnetic moments increase and freezing temperatures decrease.
