Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of permanent magnet materials technology, specifically relating to a high lanthanum cerium neodymium iron boron sintered permanent magnet and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Neodymium iron boron magnets are tetragonal crystals formed from rare-earth neodymium, iron, and boron. With a magnetic energy product greater than that of samarium cobalt magnets, they are currently the material with the largest magnetic energy product. Due to their excellent comprehensive magnetic properties, they are known as the "King of Magnets". They are indispensable components in traditional industries such as air conditioning compressors, permanent magnet traction machines, and magnetic chucks. At the same time, they are also widely used in emerging industries that are closely related to carbon neutrality and carbon emission reduction, such as new energy drive motors and wind power generation.

[0003] With changes in market supply and demand and the international situation, the price of rare earth raw materials continues to rise, making downstream customers more sensitive to the cost of magnets. Therefore, achieving efficient utilization of rare earth elements is particularly important. As the most abundant and cheapest rare earth element in the Earth's crust, the effective use of lanthanum and cerium is especially necessary. Traditional lanthanum and cerium substitutes for praseodymium and neodymium in rare earth permanent magnet materials suffer from low intrinsic magnetic properties and poor microstructure, failing to adequately meet market demands. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems by providing a high-lanthanum-cerium NdFeB sintered permanent magnet with superior magnetic properties, thereby broadening the application of high-abundance rare-earth lanthanum and cerium in NdFeB magnets.

[0005] The technical solution of this invention provides a high-lanthanum cerium neodymium iron boron sintered permanent magnet, the raw materials for which include alloy one and alloy two, the chemical formula of alloy one being [(PrNd]]. 1-x (RL) x ] a (TM) b (HM) c B d Fe 100-a-b-c-d , 0.3≤x<1, 29.5≤a≤32.5, 0<b≤5, 0<c≤0.8, 0.85≤d≤1.1, where RL is one or two of La and Ce, TM is one or more of Al, Cu, Ga, Co, and Mn, and HM is one or more of Nb, Zr, Hf, Ti, and V.

[0006] Furthermore, the chemical formula of alloy component two is (PrNd). a1 Ga b1 Fe 100-a1-b1 , 70≤a1≤90, 0<b1≤20.

[0007] Alloy 1 maximizes the proportion of high-abundance rare-earth lanthanum and cerium, and then, through compounding with Alloy 2, achieves surface magnetohardening of high-content lanthanum and cerium main phase grains. In the high-lanthanum and cerium NdFeB sintered permanent magnet, the epitaxial layer (PrNd) / RE ratio of the main phase grains inside is ≥0.6. In addition, RE6 (Fe,TM) is formed at the grain boundaries of the magnet. 14 The compound allows for the simultaneous control of rare earth composition in the grain shell and grain boundary phase composition, resulting in higher magnetic properties.

[0008] Furthermore, the mass percentages of Alloy 1 and Alloy 2 are 95.0–99.9% and 0.1–5.0%, respectively.

[0009] Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing the above-mentioned high lanthanum cerium neodymium iron boron sintered permanent magnet, comprising the following steps:

[0010] (1) After rapid solidification and melting, a thin sheet of alloy is obtained by casting.

[0011] (2) The metal is smelted and then cast to obtain alloy ingot II;

[0012] (3) Alloy 1 and Alloy 2 were hydrogen-crushed into coarse powder. After dehydrogenation treatment, Alloy 1 coarse powder was mixed evenly with Alloy 2 coarse powder, and an antioxidant was added. The powder was then milled using a two-stage air jet milling process to obtain air jet mill magnetic powder.

[0013] (4) The air-jet mill magnetic powder obtained in step (3) is oriented and shaped, vacuum-sealed and then isostatically pressed.

[0014] (5) The magnet obtained by isostatic pressing is sintered and then aged.

[0015] Retaining a small amount of hydrogen within the permanent magnet can promote coercivity to some extent; however, excessive hydrogen content can lead to product cracking. Through appropriate sintering and aging processes, two microstructures that promote coercivity enhancement are formed at the grain boundaries: uniformly distributed thin grain boundaries and a non-ferromagnetic 6:14 phase, thereby improving the overall magnetic properties within the high-lanthanum-cerium magnet.

[0016] Furthermore, in step (1), the smelting temperature is 1465~1485℃ and the casting temperature is 1405~1425℃.

[0017] Furthermore, in step (1), the thickness of the alloy sheet is 0.30 to 0.80 mm.

[0018] Furthermore, in step (2), the smelting temperature is 1485~1500℃ and the casting temperature is 1445~1455℃.

[0019] Further, in step (3), alloy one and alloy two are hydrogen-crushed into coarse powder with a particle size of 20-50 μm.

[0020] Furthermore, the temperature of the dehydrogenation treatment in step (3) is 500–580 °C.

[0021] Furthermore, in step (3), the hydrogen content of the alloy coarse powder dehydrogenation treatment is ≤1300ppm.

[0022] Furthermore, in step (3), the antioxidant is one or more of glycerol, zinc stearate, silicate, silicone oil, and n-octane.

[0023] Furthermore, in step (3), the amount of antioxidant added is 0.05 to 0.1% of the total mass of alloy one and alloy two.

[0024] Furthermore, in step (3), the first air jet milling process yields powder with an average particle size of 4.0–4.5 μm, and the second air jet milling process yields powder with an average particle size of 2.5–3.2 μm. The two-stage air jet milling process can improve the particle size distribution of the air-jet milled powder. At a similar average particle size (SMD), the higher particle size distribution is beneficial for subsequent molding and orientation, thereby improving the remanence and performance consistency of the product.

[0025] Furthermore, in step (4), the orientation current during orientation molding is 50-300A, and the molding pressure is 0.2-10MPa.

[0026] Furthermore, in step (4), the isostatic pressure during isostatic treatment is 150-200 MPa, and the holding time is 10-60 s.

[0027] Furthermore, in step (5), the vacuum degree during sintering is 0.2 to 0.5 MPa, the sintering temperature is 1010 to 1040 °C, and the sintering time is 4 to 6 h.

[0028] Furthermore, the aging treatment in step (5) adopts a two-stage aging process. The first stage aging treatment temperature is 600-860℃ and the time is 2-4h, while the second stage aging treatment temperature is 360-600℃ and the time is 3-6h. The two-stage aging can optimize the internal microstructure of the magnet, making the distribution of the thin-area grain boundary phase that enhances coercivity more uniform.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0030] (1) In this invention, by combining alloy one and alloy two, and combining them with appropriate sintering and aging processes, a high lanthanum cerium neodymium iron boron sintered permanent magnet is obtained, thereby achieving surface magnetic hardening of high lanthanum cerium main phase grains.

[0031] (2) In high lanthanum cerium neodymium iron boron sintered permanent magnets, the ratio of the internal main phase grain epitaxial layer (PrNd) / RE is ≥0.6, and RE6 (Fe, TM) is formed at the grain boundaries of the magnet.14 The compound can simultaneously control the rare earth composition of the grain shell and the composition of the grain boundary phase, thereby obtaining higher magnetic properties.

[0032] (3) After Alloy 1 and Alloy 2 are hydrogenated into coarse powder, they are dehydrogenated to retain a small amount of hydrogen in the permanent magnet, which has a certain promoting effect on coercivity.

[0033] (4) By using secondary airflow milling, the particle size concentration of powder can be improved, which is beneficial to subsequent molding and orientation, thereby improving the remanence and performance consistency of the product.

[0034] (5) Through the optimized secondary aging, the internal microstructure of the magnet can be optimized, the distribution of the thin-area grain boundary phase is more uniform, and the coercivity of the magnet is effectively enhanced. Attached Figure Description
