Co-Zr based alloy has attracted much interest of potential to replace the rare earth-containing hard magnetic materials due to its high coercivity. In this study, we investigated the effects of subtituting elements of M (Ti, Si and Nb) and annealing temperature on the structure and magnetic properties of Co79-xZr18+x-yMyB3 alloy ribbons (x = 0 - 2, y = 0 - 4). The alloy ribbons with a thickness of 20 µm were prepared by melt-spinning method with a rolling speed of 40 ms-1. A part of the melt-spun ribbons was annealed at different temperatures from 550 to 800 oC for various durations from 2 to 15 minutes. Their structure and magnetic properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and a pulsed field magnetometer (PFM), respectively. The results of the XRD analysis showed that two soft magnetic phases, namely Co and Co23Zr6, coexist with a Co5Zr hard magnetic phase in the alloy ribbons. The fraction of these phases was changed with both the concentration of the subtituting elements and annealing process. Hard magnetic properties of the alloy ribbons can be strengthened significantly, namely a large coercivity Hc > 4 kOe and maximum energy product (BH)max > 3.5 MGOe were obtained with an appropriate concentration of Ti, Si or Nb and annealing process. Furthermore, the subtituting elements also affect the optimal annealing temperature for these alloys. The obtained strong hard magnetic parameters of these rare earth-free alloys are of great importance in pratical application.

(Pr0.25Nd0.75)10-xDyxFe82Co2B6(x=0~0.3) ribbons were prepared by melt spinning at 25m/s and subsequent annealing. The effect of Dy content on the microstructure and magnetic properties of the ribbons has been investigated by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electronic microscope (SEM) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The magnetic properties related to the Dy content were characterized. Intrinsic coercivity of 598kA/m, remanence of 0.58T, and the maximum energy product (BH)max of 43kJ/m3 were achieved in (Pr0.25Nd0.75)9.8Dy0.2Fe82Co2B6 after annealing at 700°C for 10 minutes.

Nd\(_2\)Fe\(_{14}\)B/Fe\(_{65}\)Co\(_{35}\) hard magnetic ribbons were fabricated by melt-spinning technique using Nd\(_{16}\)Fe\(_{76}\)B\(_{8 }\) and Fe\(_{65}\)Co\(_{35}\) pre-alloys as starting materials. The results showed that the formation of the interactive hard/soft nanocomposite with the homogeneous distribution of the Fe-Co phase throughout the Nd\(_{2}\)Fe\(_{14}\)B matrix provided the Curie temperature (\(T_{c})\) as high as 747 K, the magnetic remanence (B\(_{r}\)) of 8.88 kG and the maximum energy product, (BH)\(_{\max}\), of 16.75 MG.Oe for the fabricated Nd\(_{2}\)Fe\(_{14}\)B/Fe\(_{65}\)Co\(_{35}\) ribbons at the optimal speed of 25 m/s. In addition, the intrinsic coercivity (\(_{i}\)H\(_{c}\)) of 9.27 kOe and remanence coercivity (\(_{b}\)H\(_{c}\)) of 6.94 kOe were found for these ribbons. The roles of the soft Fe\(_{65}\)Co\(_{35}\) phase in the increasing of \(T_{c}\), \(B_{r}\) as well as in the (00l) preferred crystallographic orientation of hard magnetic grains on the free surface side of the fabricated ribbons were also discussed.

Explosive shock compaction was used to consolidate powders obtained from melt-spun Pr2Fe14B/α–Fe nanocomposite ribbons, to produce fully dense cylindrical compacts of 17–41-mm diameter and 120-mm length. Characterization of the compacts revealed refinement of the nanocomposite structure, with approximately 15 nm uniformly sized grains. The compact produced at a shock pressure of approximately 1 GPa maintained a high coercivity, and its remanent magnetization and maximum energy product were measured to be 0.98 T and 142 kJ/m3, respectively. The compact produced at 4–7 GPa showed a decrease in magnetic properties while that made at 12 GPa showed a magnetic softening behavior. However, in both of these cases, a smooth hysteresis loop implying exchange coupling and a coercivity of 533 kA/m were fully recovered after heat treatment. The results illustrate that the explosive compaction followed by post-shock heat treatment can be used to fabricate exchange-coupled nanocomposite bulk magnets with optimized magnetic properties.

Hard Magnetic Properties

Rapidly solidified nanocrystalline RE–TM–B (RE = Nd, Pr, Dy, TM = Fe, Co) alloys with enhanced hard magnetic properties were synthesized by melt spinning. The composition- and microstructure-dependent elevated temperature magnetic properties were investigated. The temperature coefficients of remanence (α) and coercivity (β) were determined. The effects of Pr substituting Nd, Co substituting Fe, Dy substituting RE, and grain size on the Curie temperature and thermal stability were studied. Co or Dy substitutions were found to have a significant beneficial effect on the thermal stability. Reducing grain size could also improve elevated temperature behavior. Maximum energy product (BH)max > 100 kJ/m3 could be obtained in compositionally optimized nanophase alloys at temperature of 473 K. Extremely low coefficients of α and β were realized in exchange coupled nanocomposite alloys. Bonded nanocomposite magnets with α = −0.052%/K and β = −0.0365%/K for 300–400 K were also successfully fabricated.

Exchange Spring Magnets

The Nd2Fe14B/α-Fe bulk exchange-spring magnets have been prepared by spark plasma sintering melt spun Nd9.8Dy0. 4Fe78.4Co5.6B5.8 flakes under different temperatures and pressures. It was found that higher sintering temperature improved the densification of the magnets, while deteriorated their magnetic properties simultaneously. An increased compressive pressure can restrain the grain growth remarkably and then leads to better magnetic properties and higher density for the magnet at same sintering temperature. XRD analysis showed that with the increase of sintering pressure, some peaks indicating c-axis texture such as (006) and (105) became dominant. As a result, the bulk magnet exhibited higher remanence and maximum energy product than starting powders.

The discovery of a new class of permanent magnets based on Nd2Fe14B phase in the last decade has led to intense research and development efforts aimed at commercial exploitation of the new alloy. The material can be prepared either by rapid solidification or by powder metallurgy techniques and the resulting microstructures are very different. This paper details the microstructure of Nd-Fe-B magnets produced by melt-spinning.In melt spinning, quench rate can be varied easily by changing the rate of rotation of the quench wheel. There is an optimum quench rate when the material shows maximum magnetic hardening. For faster or slower quench rates, both coercivity and maximum energy product of the material fall off. These results can be directly related to the changes in the microstructure of the melt-spun ribbon as a function of quench rate. Figure 1 shows the microstructure of (a) an overquenched and (b) an optimally quenched ribbon. In Fig. 1(a), the material is nearly amorphous, with small nuclei of Nd2Fe14B grains visible and in Fig. 1(b) the microstructure consists of equiaxed Nd2Fe14B grains surrounded by a thin noncrystalline Nd-rich phase. Fig. 1(c) shows an annular dark field image of the intergranular phase. Nd enrichment in this phase is shown in the EDX spectra in Fig. 2.

The effect of magnetic powders and powders loading on magnetic properties and mechanical properties of magnetic rubbers were studied. The natural rubber with magnetic powders, Barium ferrite, Neodymium iron boron, were used as starting materials to prepare magnetic rubbers. Barium ferrite (BaO.6F2O3) powders had been sintered at 1285 oC for 30 hours to improve its crystal structure. The physical properties of magnetic rubbers, residual flux density (Br), coercive force (Hc), maximum energy product (BHmax), hardness and density, had a trend to increase as enhancing magnetic powders loading. However, some properties such as, intrinsic coercive force (Hci), tensile strength and elongation at break, had a trend to decrease when the magnetic powder loading was increased. Magnetic properties of the anisotropic type, sintered powders, were higher than isotropic type, non-sintered powders, except the Hci because anisotropic magnetic rubber indicated crystal orientation in the same direction.

By computational high-throughput screening, the spontaneous magnetization M s , uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy constant K 1 , anisotropy field H a , and maximum energy product ( B H ) max are estimated for ferromagnetic intermetallic phases with a tetragonal 1-13-X structure related to the LaCo 9 Si 4 structure type. For SmFe 13 N, a ( B H ) max as high as that of Nd 2 Fe 14 B and a comparable K 1 are predicted. Further promising candidates of composition SmFe 12 AN with A = Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, Ti, V, Al, Si, or P are identified which potentially reach (BH) max values higher than 400 kJ/m 3 combined with significant K 1 values, while containing almost 50% less rare-earth atoms than Nd 2 Fe 14 B.

Structural And Magnetic Properties

We have investigated the structural and magnetic properties of Sm(Co0.70Fe0.1Ni0.12Zr0.04B0.04)7.5 melt spun ribbons. The arc-melted bulk samples have been used to obtain ribbons at 37 up to 55 m/sec while annealing has been performed in argon atmosphere for 30-75 min at 600-870 oC. In as-spun ribbons the hexagonal SmCo7 (TbCu7-type of structure) of crystal structure has been determined from x-ray diffraction patterns, while fcc-Co has been identified as a secondary phase. After annealing, the 1:7 phase of the as-spun ribbons transforms into 2:17 and 1:5 phases. TEM analysis shows a homogeneous nanocrystalline microstructure with average grain size of 30-80 nm. Coercivity values of 15-27 kOe are obtained from hysteresis loops traced at non-saturating fields. The coercivity decreases as temperature increases, but it is high enough to maintain values higher than 5 kOe at 380 oC. The maximum energy product at room temperature increases, as high as 7.2 MGOe, for melt-spun ribbons produced at higher wheel speed.

Nd Substitution

The effects of the ratio of Y to Dy as well as the effect of Nd and Co substitutions on magnetic properties in [Ndx(YDy)0.5(1-x)]2.2Fe14-yCoyB ribbons melt-spun at 22 m/s have been systematically studied. (Y1-zDyz)2.2Fe14B ribbons with a ratio z of 0.25 or 0.5 simultaneously obtains a smaller temperature coefficient of remanence (α ) and coervicity (β ) which are much smaller than those of Nd-based Nd2Fe14B ribbons. In [Ndx(YDy)0.5(1-x)]2.2Fe14-yCoyB ribbons, Nd substitution (x=0 to 0.8) can improve the maximum energy product (BH)max of annealed ribbons but degrades the temperature stability of the magnetic properties. The ribbons with x=0.4 and y=0 yield a (BH)max of 8.7 MGOe. For these ribbons, the α and β are -0.07 and -0.31 %/°C in the temperature range of 27 to 127°C, respectively. Increasing Co (x) from 0 to 3, slightly decreases coercivity Hcj from 21.5 to 16.3 kOe, but keeps the (BH)max in the range of 8.6 to 10.2 MGOe. The optimal sample with x=0.5 and y=1.5 obtains a (BH)max of 10.2 and 5.0 MGOe at 27 and 250°C, respectively. Its α and β are -0.11 and -0.30 %/°C, respectively. These results show that studied ribbons are very promising to develop into high temperature isotropic bonded magnets capable of operating at or above 180°C.
