The crystal structure and magnetic properties of NdFe12−xMox (x = 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3.0) compounds were synthesized and investigated. These compounds crystallized in ThMn12-type single phase, and the Curie temperature decreased with increasing Mo content. NdFe9.5Mo2.5 has a Curie temperature around room temperature, and a reversible magnetic entropy change was observed ∼290 K due to the second-order magnetic transition. The maximum value of −ΔSM is 2.38 J kg-1 K-1 at 290 K for a magnetic field change of 50 kOe. The working temperature span is more than 150 K and the relative cooling power reaches 357 J/kg, which makes the compound a promising candidate for magnetic refrigerator vicinal room temperature.
