The invention relates to an NdFeB (
neodymium-iron-
boron)
magnet, in particular to a method for preparing the NdFeB
magnet by waste materials, and belongs to the technical field of magnetic materials. The preparing method of the NdFeB
magnet comprises the following steps that firstly, NdFeB magnet waste materials are cleaned and are dried through being blown, the NdFeB magnet waste materials are crushed into particles being 10 to 15mm by a crushing
machine,
rare earth metal is added into the particles, then,
hydrogen crushing treatment is carried out to obtain crushed
powder, and next, antioxidants are added for
airflow grinding to obtain
fine powder with the average particle
diameter being 3.0 to 4.0 mu. m; next, lubricating agents are added, orientation is carried out under the protection
atmosphere of
nitrogen gas, in addition, pressing forming is carried out, and finally, NdFeB magnet finished products are obtained through discharging
plasma sintering, secondary
tempering heat treatment and surface treatment. The method has the advantages that waste materials are used as major raw materials, the simple and feasible preparing method is adopted, the
recovery and
utilization rate of the waste materials is effectively improved, in addition, Tb, Dy, Nd and Ce are added and compounded in the preparing process, and the obtained NdFeB magnet has better coercive force, residual
magnetism and
magnetic energy product.
