Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of composite functional materials technology, and in particular relates to a rare earth magnetic far-infrared dual-functional material, its preparation method and application. Background Technology

[0002] Neodymium iron boron (NdFeB) permanent magnets are widely used due to their excellent magnetic properties, but their function is mainly limited to providing a magnetic field. However, in fields such as physiotherapy and energy conservation, materials often need to possess both magnetic and far-infrared functions. Current technologies typically employ physical composite methods, simply mixing magnetic powder with far-infrared ceramic powder. This approach has significant drawbacks: first, the interfacial bonding between the two phases is weak, leading to component separation during long-term use; second, the addition of far-infrared ceramic powder significantly dilutes the magnetic phase concentration, resulting in a substantial decrease in magnetic properties; and third, physical mixing makes it difficult to achieve a synergistic enhancement effect. Single NdFeB magnetic alloys or rare-earth far-infrared materials each have their limitations. The far-infrared emission performance of magnetic alloys is usually determined by their lattice vibrations, with an upper limit to improvement; while physically mixing rare-earth salts and magnetic powders suffers from poor interfacial compatibility and performance degradation. The challenge currently facing technology is how to construct a robust and efficient functionalized layer on the surface of a magnetic alloy without compromising its magnetic properties, thereby generating a synergistic effect of "1+1>2".

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0027] The rare-earth magnetic far-infrared bifunctional material of this invention exhibits a high-entropy effect, significantly enhancing its structural stability and intrinsic magnetocaloric effect and far-infrared radiation characteristics. The Si-O-Ce covalent bonds constructed through a silane coupling agent serve as a robust bridge connecting the core and the outer shell. This differs from the weak interactions of physical adsorption, ensuring the stability of the outer shell and preventing the functional layer from peeling off during long-term use or under harsh environments. The five rare-earth elements in the high-entropy alloy are randomly distributed at lattice sites, resulting in lattice distortion. This distortion drastically alters the material's phonon spectrum (lattice vibration modes), significantly enhancing its lattice vibrations in the mid- and far-infrared bands (especially 8-14 μm), thus providing excellent far-infrared emission capabilities with a far-infrared emissivity as high as 0.95. Furthermore, the remanence of the rare-earth magnetic far-infrared bifunctional material of this invention is >1.13T, achieving dual synergy between magnetism and far-infrared radiation.

[0125] The rare-earth magnetic far-infrared bifunctional materials prepared in the examples and comparative examples were subjected to far-infrared emissivity and remanence measurements, wherein:

[0126] The powder material to be tested is pressed into a flat, uniformly thick sheet sample at 15 MPa. The prepared sample and a standard blackbody source are placed in the measurement optical path of the instrument. At room temperature, the infrared spectra of the sample and the blackbody source in a specific wavelength band are measured. By comparing the spectral radiation signal of the sample with that of an ideal blackbody at the same temperature, the far-infrared emissivity (8-14 μm) of the sample in the normal direction is calculated.

[0127] Remanence measurement was performed in accordance with GB / T 43750-2024 "Method for measuring the magnetic properties of isotropic rare earth bonded permanent magnet powder".

[0128] The measurement results are shown in the table below:
