  • Patent number: 5690752
    Abstract: A permanent magnet is obtained by pulverizing, molding and sintering a starting material containing an alloy ingot. The alloy ingot contains not less than 90% by volume of columnar crystals each having a columnar crystal grain size of 0.1 to 50 .mu.m along a short axis thereof and a columnar crystal grain size of larger than 100 .mu.m and not larger than 300 .mu.m along a long axis thereof, and is obtained by uniformly solidifying by a single roll method a molten alloy containing 25 to 31% by weight of a rare earth metal, 0.5 to 1.5% by weight of boron and iron under cooling conditions of a cooling rate of higher than 500.degree. C./sec. and not higher than 10,000.degree. C./sec. and a supercooling degree of 50.degree. to 500.degree. C.

  • Patent number: 5680896
    Abstract: A method for producing rare earth metal-nickel hydrogen occlusive alloy ingot that contains 90 vol % or more of crystals having a crystal grain size of 1 to 50 .mu.m as measured along a short axis of the crystal and 1 to 100 .mu.m as measured along a long axis of the crystal. The method for producing the rare earth metal-nickel hydrogen occlusive alloy ingot involves melting a rare earth metal-nickel alloy and uniformly solidifying the alloy melt to have a thickness of 0.1 to 20 mm under cooling conditions of a cooling rate of 10.degree. to 1000.degree. C./sec and a sub-cooling degree of 10.degree. to 500.degree. C.

  • Patent number: 5674327
    Abstract: An alloy ingot for permanent magnet consists essentially of rare earth metal and iron and optionally boron. The two-component alloy ingot contains 90 vol % or more of crystals having a crystal grain size along a short axis of 0.1 to 100 .mu.m and that along a long axis of 0.1 to 100 .mu.m. The three-component alloy ingot contains 90 vol % or more of crystals having a crystal grain size along a short axis of 0.1 to 50 .mu.m and that along a long axis of 0.1 to 100 .mu.m. The alloy ingot is produced by solidifying the molten alloy uniformly at a cooling rate of 10.degree. to 1000.degree. C./sec. at a sub-cooling degree of 10.degree. to 500.degree. C. A permanent magnet and anisotropic powders are produced from the alloy ingot.
