Magnetic refrigeration based on the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) may provide an energy-efficient and environment-friendly alternative to the conventional gas compression/expansion cooling technology. For potential applications, low-cost and high-performance magnetic refrigerants are in great need. Here, we demonstrate that giant MCE can be achieved in annealed Ni52Mn26Ga22 ribbons with magneto-multistructural transformation. It yields a maximum magnetic entropy change of −30.0 J kg−1 K−1 at the magnetic field change of 5 T, being almost three times as that of initial melt-spun ribbons and comparable to or even superior to that of polycrystalline bulk alloys.

Hydrostatic pressure represents an inexpensive and practical method of driving caloric effects in brittle magnetocaloric materials, which display first‐order magnetostructural phase transitions whose large latent heats are traditionally accessed using applied magnetic fields. Here, moderate changes of hydrostatic pressure are used to drive giant and reversible inverse barocaloric effects near room temperature in the notoriously brittle magnetocaloric material MnCoGeB0.03. The barocaloric effects compare favorably with those observed in barocaloric materials that are magnetic. The inevitable fragmentation provides a large surface for heat exchange with pressure‐transmitting media, permitting good access to barocaloric effects in cooling devices.

The characteristics of magnetostructural coupling play a crucial role in the magnetic field-driven behaviour of magnetofunctional alloys. The availability of magnetostructural coupling over a broad temperature range is of great significance for scientific and technological purposes. This work demonstrates that strong magnetostrucural coupling can be achieved over a wide temperature range (222 to 355 K) in Co-doped high Mn-content Mn50Ni42−x Co x Sn8 (0 ≤ x ≤ 10) melt-spun ribbons. It is shown that, over a wide composition range with Co content from 3 to 9 at.%, the paramagnetic austenite first transforms into ferromagnetic austenite at T C on cooling, then the ferromagnetic austenite further transforms into a weakly magnetic martensite at T M. Such strong magnetostructural coupling enables the ribbons to exhibit field-induced inverse martensitic transformation behaviour and a large magnetocaloric effect. Under a field change of 5 T, a maximum magnetic entropy change ΔS M of 18.6 J kg−1 K−1 and an effective refrigerant capacity RC eff of up to 178 J kg−1 can be achieved, which are comparable with or even superior to those of Ni-rich Ni–Mn-based polycrystalline bulk alloys. The combination of high performance and low cost makes Mn–Ni–Co–Sn ribbons of great interest as potential candidates for magnetic refrigeration.
