This paper reports the coercivity of the melt spun pseudobinary (NdFe{sub 10}Cr{sub 2}){sub 1{minus}x}(Nd{sub 2}B){sub x} alloys, in which Nd{sub 2}B represents a composition of Nd{sub 0.67}B{sub 0.33} systematically studied. It was found that significant coercivities are possible with optimal additions of the Nd-B composition at x = 0.5 - 0.7. The as-spun (substrate velocity, Vs = 10 m/s) coercivity increased from 0.1 kOe at x = 0.0 to maxima of 7.0 and 7.5 kOe at x = 0.5 and 0.7, due to the Nd{sub 2}Fe{sub 14}B and a new Fe-Nd phase, respectively, as evidenced from thermomagnetic analysis and x-ray diffraction. Annealing the over-quenched amorphous x = 0.7 alloy led to the crystallization of the Nd{sub 2}Fe{sub 14} phase and a coercivity of 8.5 kOe was obtained.
