  • Patent number: 11915861
    Abstract: There is provided a method for manufacturing a rare earth sintered magnet having a stable magnetic performance, by uniformly distributing a heavy rear earth element to the surface of the magnet and the grain boundary inside of the magnet by using a mixture of a heavy rare earth compound or a heavy rare earth metal alloy and a rare earth magnet powder, to lower a decrease rate of the magnetic characteristics based on the temperature of the rare earth sintered magnet.

  • Patent number: 11682506
    Abstract: Disclosed are a rare-earth permanent magnet having improved magnetic properties and a method of manufacturing the same. A method of manufacturing a rare-earth permanent magnet may include: preparing a mixed powder including i) a first alloy represented by R1aR2bBcMdFebal and ii) a second alloy represented by R2bBcMdFebal where R1 is one or two or more of La, Ce, and Y; R2 is a rare-earth element except for La, Ce, and Y; and M is a metal element; press-forming and sintering the prepared mixed powder in a magnetic field to prepare a sintered body; and performing a heat treatment based on diffusion temperature conditions of an R1 component and an R2 component contained in the prepared sintered body.

  • Patent number: 11527356
    Abstract: A method for producing a heavy rare earth grain-boundary-diffused RE-Fe—B-based rare earth magnet and a heavy rare earth grain-boundary-diffused RE-Fe—B-based rare earth magnet produced thereby is disclosed. More particularly, a method for producing a heavy rare earth grain-boundary-diffused RE-Fe—B-based rare earth sintered magnet having a reduced content of a heavy rare earth element is disclosed, in which a hydrogen compound of a heavy rare earth is mainly used as a diffusion material in the production of the grain-boundary-diffused magnet so that a product having uniform and stable quality can be produced. The coercive force of the magnet can be increased while minimizing the amount of heavy rare earth used in the production of the grain-boundary-diffused magnet, by solving the problem that the heavy rare earth is not uniformly diffused into the magnet, and a heavy rare earth grain-boundary-diffused RE-Fe—B-based rare earth magnet produced thereby.
