  • SAMARIUM-IRON-BASED RARE EARTH PERMANENT MAGNET MATERIAL CONTAINING GRAIN BOUNDARY PHASE AND PREPARATION METHOD THEREFOR AND USE THEREOF
    Publication number: 20250137106
    Abstract: The present invention provides a samarium-iron-based rare earth permanent magnet material containing a grain boundary phase, having a chemical formula of SmaFebCocTidMe, wherein 0.5?a?1.5, 7.5?b?9.0, 2.0?c?3.0, 0.5?d?1.5, 0.1?e?2.0, and M is selected from the group consisting of B, C, Al, Si and a combination thereof. The present invention further provides a method for preparing a samarium-iron-based rare earth permanent magnet material containing a grain boundary phase, comprising providing raw materials of the alloy, melting and casting the raw materials to obtain a master alloy; and subjecting the master alloy to rapid quenching and melt-spinning to obtain the samarium-iron-based rare earth permanent magnet material containing the grain boundary phase. In the method, a problem that a non-magnetic grain boundary phase cannot be formed in the samarium-iron-based rare earth permanent magnet material due to the lack of liquid phase is solved, and the purity of the main phase is improved.
