%X The magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effect in Fe4MnSi3Bx compounds with x=0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25 have been investigated. X-ray diffraction study shows that all these compounds investigated crystallize in the Mn5Si3-type structure with space group P63/mcm. Boron insertion in the host ternary silicide Fe4MnSi3 does not change the crystal symmetry, only leads to an increase of the lattice parameters, indicating the B atoms entered the interstitial sites. With increasing B content, the Curie temperature shifts to higher temperatures. The maximal magnetic-entropy changes of the Fe4MnSi3Bx compounds with x=0, 0.10 and 0.20 are about 1.8 J/(kg·K), 1.8~J/(kg·K) and 1.6~J/(kg·K), respectively, for a field change from 0 to 1.5 T.
