We investigate magnetism and quantum phase transitions in a one-dimensional system of integrable spin-1 bosons with strongly repulsive density-density interaction and antiferromagnetic spin-exchange interaction via the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz method. At zero temperature, the system exhibits three quantum phases: (i) a singlet phase of boson pairs when the external magnetic field H is less than the lower critical field H-c1; (ii) a ferromagnetic phase of atoms in the hyperfine state vertical bar F= 1, m(F)=1 > when the external magnetic field exceeds the upper critical field H-c2; and (iii) a mixed phase of singlet pairs and unpaired atoms in the intermediate region H-c1 < H < H-c2. At finite temperatures, the spin fluctuations affect the thermodynamics of the model through coupling the spin bound states to the dressed energy for the unpaired m(F)=1 bosons. However, such spin dynamics is suppressed by a sufficiently strong external field at low temperatures. Thus the singlet pairs and unpaired bosons may form a two-component Luttinger liquid in the strong coupling regime.
