Problems solved by technology

However, when the sintered magnet is transported for Ni plating after sintering, it may react with oxygen or water, and the handling is troublesome.
In addition, the production efficiency is low due to the formation of a protective film through multiple processes such as surface cleaning and Ni plating.
On the other hand, after the sintered magnet is obtained, the sintered magnet is sometimes machined into a predetermined shape in order to trim it into a finished product. However, this processing causes defects (cracks, etc.) and distortion in the crystal grains of the sintered magnet, and the magnetic properties are significantly changed. Poor, so it is necessary to increase or restore the magnetization and coercive force according to the use of the product

Embodiment 1

[0065] In Example 1, with figure 1 In the vacuum vapor treatment apparatus 1 shown in , the permanent magnet M is obtained by performing the first step and the second step on the sintered magnet S below. For the sintered magnet S, a commercially available 40H sintered magnet was purchased (composition ratio:

[0066] 28.5(Nd+Pr)-3Dy-0.05Co-0.05Cu-0.01Zr-0.05Ga-1.1B-Bal.Fe), processed into a cube of 10×10×10mm, and cleaned the surface.

Abstract

Provided is a method for the production of permanent magnets whereby permanent magnets having effectively improved or restored magnetic characteristics such as coercive force which are corrosion resistant and weather resistant can be produced at low cost and in a way which is suitable for mass production. An iron - boron - rare earth sintered magnet and a metal vaporization material which contains at least one of Dy and Tb are arranged in a treatment chamber and heated to vaporization. An inert gas is introduced into the treatment chamber where the sintered magnet has been arranged while the metal vaporization material is being vaporized. Metal atoms are deposited while the quantity of vaporized metal atoms being supplied to the surface of the sintered magnet is adjusted by controlling the partial pressure of the inert gas and the metal atoms are diffused into the crystal grain boundaries and / or crystal grain boundary phase of the sintered magnet before a thin film comprised of deposited metal atoms is formed. Cold gas is then introduced into the treatment chamber where the sintered magnet has been arranged and a reaction gas is introduced while the treatment chamber is being cooled, and the surface of the sintered magnet is covered with a reaction film and set in a fixed state.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a permanent magnet, in particular to a method for diffusing Dy or Tb into the grain boundaries and / or grain boundary phases of Nd-Fe-B based sintered magnets without the need for a protective film formed by Ni electroplating A method for manufacturing a high-performance permanent magnet and a permanent magnet manufactured by the method. Background technique [0002] Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets (so-called neodymium magnets) are composed of a combination of iron, Nd, and B elements that are cheap and abundant and can be stably provided, so they can be manufactured cheaply and have high magnetic properties (maximum magnetic energy Its volume is about 10 times that of ferrite-based magnets), and it is used in various products such as electronic equipment, and is also used in electric motors and engines for hybrid vehicles, and its usage is increasing. [0003] Such a sintered magnet is mainly produc...
