A systematic (Gd1-xREx)5Si4 (RE=Dy, Ho) alloys are investigated to estimate their magnetocaloric effect.The Curie points of (Gd1-xREx)Si4 alloys can tunable from 266 K to 336 K when RE=Dy, Ho; x=0～0.35 and 0～0.15, respectively, and decrease nearly linearly with increasing x. These alloys keep orthorhombic structures Ge5Sm4 and exhibit second order transition when they experience in a change magnetic field at about Curie when magnetic field changes 0～2 T. The adiabatic temperatures changes (△Tad) of these alloys at Curie points are larger than 1 K in a field change 0～1.4 T, the curve of △Tad is wide as that of Gd. The relative cooling power is about 0.8～0.9 J/cm3 when field changes 0～2 T, 55% of that of Gd. Comparing with Gd5(Si1-xGex)4, these alloys do not contain expensive element Ge, so that their cost are lower than the former. Because they could work at temperature region 260～340 K due to their Curie points can be tuned, which is an advantage comparing with Gd, these alloys are potential magnetic refrigerants working in a magnetic refrigerator with a low magnetic field at room temperatures.
