English abstract Nd16Co72−xRuxC11B boro-carbides have been prepared by arc melting and studied by X-ray diffraction and magnetization measurements. X-ray diffraction results confirm that all the prepared alloys possess the tetragonal 2:14:1 (P42/mmm) hard magnetic phase. The observed decrease of the magnetization and Curie temperature indicate the development of antiferromagnetic spin correlations with the increase of the Ru content. The combined addition of B and C is favorable to the formation and stabilization of the tetragonal phase in these compounds. At lower Ru contents the Curie temperature is higher than in the corresponding Co-based boride in spite of larger cell volumes
