Dy2Fe17 is an intermetallic compound belonging to the rare-earth iron family, composed of dysprosium and iron in a 2:17 stoichiometric ratio. This material is primarily investigated for permanent magnet applications, where the dysprosium addition enhances magnetic coercivity and high-temperature stability compared to conventional iron-based magnets. It represents an important research direction in reducing the dependence on critical rare-earth elements while maintaining strong permanent magnet performance for demanding thermal environments.
