Description

[0091] It can be seen that the examples of the present disclosure can effectively solve the problems of insufficient strength of high-Cu magnet and meanwhile ensure the magnetic properties of magnet material.Effect Example 2

[0092] By adding a certain amount of Cu, Al, Dy, Nb in combination, it can be found that Cu and high-melting-point elements such as Nb are enriched in most of the grain boundary phase area in the magnet, while the heavy rare earth elements Dy and Al are barren at grain boundaries; more specifically, Cu and high-melting-point elements such as Nb are enriched in the grain boundary phase area, and the existence of enrichment area of Cu and the high-melting-point elements in the grain boundary phase contributes to preventing the abnormal growth of crystal grains during the sintering process, reducing the sensitivity of the magnet to the temperature of the sintering, which is beneficial to increase the temperature of the sintering, the increase of the sintering temperature is beneficial to improve the coercive force and mechanical strength of the magnet. At the same time, the content of Al and Dy in the grain boundary phase is relatively low, the poorness of Al and Dy in the grain boundary phase means that more Al and Dy exist in the phase interface between the main phase and grain boundary phase of the neodymium iron boron magnet, the existence of Al in the phase interface is beneficial to improve the fluidity of the intergranular phase during the high-temperature heat treatment process, thereby forming a more stable phase interface and reducing the interface energy, thereby improving the mechanical strength of the magnet. The existence of Dy in the phase interface is beneficial to increase the magnetocrystalline anisotropy field of the phase interface, thereby increasing the coercivity of the magnet.

[0093] Taking Example 1 as an example, it can be seen from the SEM spectrum (Figure1) that the magnet of Example 1 is composed of main phase of Nd 2 Fe 14 B (reference number 1, gray area) and intergranular Nd-riched phase (reference number 2, silver-white area). The EPMA microanalysis of Example 1 is shown in Figure 2.

[0094] The results of EPMA microanalysis can be obtained from Figure 2:

[0095] The composition of the main phase of the magnet is: Nd 25-28 Dy 0.1-2.1 Fe 65-71 Al 0.55-1.2 Co 1-2.5 B 0.9-1.1 , the composition of the grain boundary phase is: Nd 35-48 Dy 0.5-4.5 Fe 45-51 Al 0.05 - 0.25 Nb 1.5-6 B 0.8-1.1 Cu 6-15 Co 1-5.5 ; wherein, the proportion of the main phase is 88-93wt.%, and the proportion of the grain boundary phase is 7-12wt.%.

[0096] The above is the main reason why the mechanical strength and coercivity of the magnet with high Cu content in the present disclosure do not deteriorate due to the high Cu content.
