The effects of the HDDR (hydrogenation decomposition desorption recombination) phenomenon on the magnetic properties of SmFe
11Ti, SmFe
10MM′, NdFe
11Ti, and Nd
1+δFe
10MM′ (δ=0, 0.3, M=Ti, V, Mo, M′=V, Mo) compounds with ThMn
12-type Structure were investigated. Alloy powders of SmFe
10V
2, SmFe
10TiV, and NdFe
10MM′; (M=Ti, V, Mo, M′;=V, Mo) form a ThMn
12-type structure after heat treatment at 800°C in hydrogen and subsequently in a vacuum, but RFe
11Ti (R=Sm, Nd) compounds form a TbCu
7-type structure. High coercivities of 6.0 kOe and 5.8 kOe were obtained with SmFe
10TiV and Nd
1.3Fe
10VMoN
x compounds subjected to the HDDR Phenomena, respectively.
