FerromagneticL21phase of Ni2MnAl with high order degree is difficult to synthesize because of lowL21/B2 order-disorder transformation temperature. It is found that magnetic field accelerated the transformation from the antiferromagnetic disorderedB2 to orderedL21phase. Magnetization increased by in-magnetic-field annealing at 673 K, which indicated the acceleration of the ordering toL21phase. Magnetic field effects on theB2/L21order-disorder transformation were discussed based on magnetic-field-induced change of transformation temperature, enhancement of degree of order at annealing temperature, and reduction of critical radius ofL21nuclei. Growth kinetics ofL21phase were evaluated by Johnson-Mehl-Avrami equation, which indicated that 15-T annealing accelerated the growth ofL21phase 5.7 times faster than zero-field annealing. Our results showed that magnetic field can contribute to shortening the annealing time for synthesis of ferromagneticL21-Ni2MnAl alloy.
