The magnetic properties of (U1-xDyx)Ni5 compounds were studied in the temperature range 2-800 K and fields up to 7 T. The compounds having x ≥ 0.2 are magnetically ordered. Above the Curie points, the reciprocal susceptibilities follow a modified Curie-Weiss behaviour. UNi5 is a paramagnet. A peak in the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility is evidenced at T ≈ 20 K. For T > 140 K the UNi5 susceptibility is temperature independent.
