Abstract AlNiCo-8 alloys were synthesized by annealing a mixture of Al/Ni/Co/Cu/Fe/Ti oxides and CaH2 in an inert gas environment. In four parallel experiments, the annealing temperature was controlled as 500, 600, 700 and 800 °C, respectively. The magnetic properties were investigated by VSM. The results showed when the temperature was below 700 °C, a higher reduction temperature was beneficial to both crystallization and magnetic properties. However, when the temperature was above 700 °C, all oxides were reduced, and a further increased temperature did not bring much extra benefits on crystallization or magnetic properties.
