We　adopted　sodium　silicate　to　prepare　composites　of　La(Fe,　Si)(13)　hydrides　in　this　work.　A　homogenous　and　continuous　matrix　of　sodium　silicate　was　formed　at　a　relatively　low　solidification　temperature.　No　counter　diffusion　between　the　matrix　and　the　grains　of　La(Fe,　Si)(13)　hydrides　was　observed.　The　magnetocaloric　effect　of　pure　La(Fe,　Si)(13)　hydrides　is　largely　preserved　in　the　composites,　showing　a　high　tolerance　to　sodium　silicate.　These　composites　possess　high　thermal　conductivity　and　decent　compressive　strength　compared　with　the　epoxy　resin　bonded　samples.　These　results　suggest　that　sodium　silicate　is　a　promising　binder　material　for　producing　bulk　La(Fe,　Si)(13)　hydrides　for　their　application　in　magnetic　refrigeration.
