The magnetic torque, T, was applied to determine the anisotropy constants K 1 and K 2 of the UFe 6 Al 6 , UFe 9 AlSi 2 and ScFe 1 0 Si 2 compounds. The mechanism of magnetization reversal processes in these compounds was investigated on the basis of the analysis of the rotational hysteresis energy, W r and rotational hysteresis integral, R, calculated from the magnetic torque curves. Applying the powder pattern method, magnetic domain structures were observed. Moreover, the fundamental parameters of the domain structure were determined.
