  • Publication number: 20230023534
    Abstract: Disclosed are a neodymium-iron-boron magnet material, a raw material composition, a preparation method therefor and a use thereof. The raw material composition of the neodymium-iron-boron magnet material comprises the following components in weight content: R: 28-33%; R being rare earth elements, and comprising R1 and R2, R1 being a rare earth element added during smelting, R1 comprising Nd and Dy, R2 being a rare earth element added during grain boundary diffusion, R2 comprising Tb, and the content of R2 being 0.2-1%; M: ?0.4% but not 0, M being one or more elements among Bi, Sn, Zn, Ga, In, Au and Pb; Cu: ?0.15% but not 0; B: 0.9-1.1%; Fe: 60-70%; but not containing Co. The neodymium-iron-boron magnet material under the condition of adding a small amount of heavy rare earth elements and not adding cobalt, can still have a relatively high coercivity and remanence, and excellent thermal stability.

  • Patent number: 11501914
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a grain boundary diffusion method of an R—Fe—B series rare earth sintered magnet, an HRE diffusion source, and a preparation method thereof, comprising the following steps: engineering A of forming a dry layer on a high-temperature-resistant carrier, the dry layer being adhered with HRE compound powder, the HRE being at least one of Dy, Tb, Gd, or Ho; and engineering B of performing heat treatment on the R—Fe—B series rare earth sintered magnet and the high-temperature-resistant carrier treated with the engineering A in a vacuum or inert atmosphere and supplying HRE to a surface of the R—Fe—B series rare earth sintered magnet. The method can reduce the consumption of heavy rare earth element and control the loss of residual magnetism Br while increasing the coercivity.
