Computer programs have been developed to predict temperature coefficients of saturation magnetization for (Sm{sub 1{minus}{ital x}}Gd{sub {ital x}}){sub 2}Tm{sub 17} magnets with higher Fe content from temperature-dependent magnetic properties of single rare-earth compositions. Very good agreement was obtained between the calculated and measured data. The composition Sm{sub 0.54}Gd{sub 0.46} (Co{sub 0.63}Fe{sub 0.29}Cu{sub 0.06}Zr{sub 0.02}){sub 7.69} exhibits a nearly zero temperature coefficient of magnetization from {minus}60 to 150 {degree}C. Its maximum energy product remains 16--17 MGOe in the temperature range of 20--200 {degree}C. A room-temperature energy product of 19 MGOe was attained for the composition Sm{sub 0.55}Gd{sub 0.45}(Co{sub 0.608}Fe{sub 0.316}Zr{sub 0.02}){sub 7.72}.
