Abstract: A magnetically anisotropic hot-worked magnet made of an R-T-B alloy containing a transition metal T as a main component, a rare earth element R including yttrium, and boron B; the magnet having the fine crystal grains having an average grain size of 0.02 -1.0 .mu.m, and having a carbon content of 0.8 weight % or less and an oxygen content of 0.5 weight % or less. The angular variance of orientation of the crystal grains is within 30.degree. from the C axes of the crystal grains when measured by X-ray. This magnet can be produced by mixing the magnet flakes with an additive composed of at least one organic compound having a boiling point of 50.degree. C. or higher.

Abstract: Anisotropic not-worked permanent magnets are made from an R-T-B alloyed powder to which is added a combination internal lubricant including a carbon-based material such as graphite and a glass material such as glass from the B.sub.2 O.sub.3 -SiO.sub.2 -BiO.sub.3 glass system. The internal lubricant provides improved formability during the hot-working step, such as die-upsetting, and provides finished magnet products wherein the individual grains are more uniformly plastically deformed throughout the product.

According to the method, a green compact or a densified compact is first prepared from a selected flake or a powder material composed of amorphous and/or fine-crystallized particles obtained through rapid quenching of the molten alloy. It is then provided with magnetic anisotropy through plastic deformation effected radially inwardly along substantially the entire periphery of the compact initially deformed to receive a mandrel-core, and maintained at a temperature of 600 to 850 degrees C. Subsequently, the deformed body is magnetized with the desired radial or polar magnetization pattern.
