Abstract: Disclosed herein is a two-component structural adhesive based on organic compounds containing radically polymerizable multiple bonds, in particular substituted acrylates and/or methacrylates, which on account of their lack of acids are particularly suited for adhering rare earth permanent magnets based on neodymium-iron-boron.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a lacquer composition, particularly an adhesive and corrosion-protective lacquer for rare earth magnets, on the basis of an epoxy resin mixture, a setting accelerator, a silane-based epoxy functional adhesion promoter and a solvent or a solvent mixture, wherein the lacquer composition includes 5 to 20 wt. %, with respect to the amount of solid resin in the base of the epoxy resin mixture, of a highly viscous epoxy resin based on bisphenol-A with an elastomer content of more than 30 wt. %.

Abstract: A method for connecting a first joining partner to a second joining partner. After provision of the first joining partner and the second joining partner, a lacquer layer is applied to the first joining partner. Then the first joining partner and the second joining partner are saturated together with an impregnating resin. The lacquer layer is produced from a lacquer composition based on an epoxy resin mixture, a curing accelerator, a silane-based, epoxy-functional bonding agent, and a solvent. The epoxy resin mixture has 10 wt.-% to 94 wt.-% of at least one solid epoxy resin with a maximum epoxy count of 2 Eq/kg, 1 wt.-% to 50 wt.-% of at least one solid, multifunctional epoxy resin with an epoxy count >4 Eq/kg, and 5 wt.-% to 40 wt.-% of a phenol and/or kresol novolak with a melting point >30° C. After impregnation, the viscosity of the impregnating resin is reduced such that the first joining partner and the second joining partner are connected to one another.

Abstract: A paint composition, in particular an anti-corrosive paint, for rare earth permanent magnets, has an epoxy resin mixture, a curing accelerator, an epoxy-functional adhesion promoter based on silane and a solvent. Due to the paint compositions, rare earth permanent magnets can be bonded simultaneously to a magnet system in a one method step and can be protected against corrosion. Due to the anti-corrosive paint, magnet systems which have excellent anti-corrosion properties, a satisfactory adhesive strength even at high temperatures and display good electric insulation properties, are provided.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a sintered material offering improved corrosion protection by activation and coating of the surface with a metal, followed by a heat treatment. Said method is characterized in that during activation and before coating with said metal the following steps are carried out: removal of particles adhering to the surface of the sintered material by treating said surface with a stripper; passivation of the surface; and drying of the sintered material. The invention also relates to a magnetic body with greater corrosion resistance.

Abstract: The magnet has hard magnetic grains (K), with the hard magnetic grains (K) separated from one another in a surface layer of the magnet by a first phase (P1), while the hard magnetic grains (K) in the remaining part of the magnet are separated from one another through a nonmagnetic second phase (P2). The first phase (P1) is more corrosion resistant than the second phase (P2), so that the surface layer serves as corrosion protection. The first phase (P1) has, in addition to elements of which the second phase (P2) consists, at least one further element.

Abstract: NdFeB magnets are very sensitive to corrosion and are provided, among other things, with a layer of aluminum in order to improve their resistance to corrosion. To improve the resistance of an aluminum-coated article, such as the NdFeB magnet, the magnet with the aluminum coating is subjected to a heat treatment at a temperature lower than the melting temperature of the aluminum, which heat treatment improves the resistance to corrosion when subjected to a humid atmosphere at an elevated temperature.

Abstract: In the manufacture of magnetic data carriers, such for example, hard-disk storages, it must be assured that neither the data carrier itself nor component parts of the data carrier system situated in the proximity has magnetic contaminants. An improved measuring method allows the determination of the magnetic contaminants which were attached to an adhesive tape applied to the surface being examined. The improvement is that a magnetized soft-magnetic measuring substrate has a surface provided with a parting agent which is then brought into contact with the magnetic contaminants adhering to the adhesive tape. A reduction of the remanent field that is produced by this contact represents a criterion for the magnetic contamination of the surface under examination.
