Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing a neodymium-iron-boron rare-earth permanent magnetic material, in particular to a hot press molding-based method for preparing a rare-earth permanent magnet. The problem that the residual magnetism and coercive force of a rare-earth permanent magnet prepared in the prior art cannot be both high is solved. An RTM alloy infiltrates same during an HD treatment. RTM sticks to the surface of coarse powder and infiltrates into the interior of the coarse powder along a grain boundary. The temperature of hot press sintering is relatively low, and grains barely grow. In the absence of Dy and Tb, a higher coercive force is obtained. If an alloy containing Dy and Tb is used for infiltration, these atoms diffuse into the surface layer of a main phase during preheating and heat treatment, achieving grain boundary hardening. Under the premise of a very small reduction in the residual magnetism, the coercive force is greatly improved.

Abstract: Described herein are coiled tubes with improved and varying properties along the length that are produced by using a continuous and dynamic heat treatment process (CDHT). Coiled tubes can be uncoiled from a spool, subjected to a CDHT process, and coiled onto a spool. A CDHT process can produce a “composite” tube such that properties of the tube along the length of the tube are selectively varied. For example, the properties of the tube can be selectively tailored along the length of the tube for particular application for which the tube will be used.
