Abstract
The effect of Ti addition on microstructures and magnetic properties of B-lean (Pr,Nd)31.1Fe67.1–x(CoCuGa)1.4TixB0.9 (wt%, x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4) sintered magnets were investigated. The remanence Br is slightly reduced due to the deteriorated orientation degree and the diminished volume fraction of main phase caused by the existence of rod-shaped Ti-B-rich phase. However, the HcJ obviously increases from 1145 kA/m for x = 0.0 sample to 1515 kA/m for x = 0.2 sample. The results demonstrate that the increments of coercivity for x = 0.2 and x = 0.0 samples after post-sinter annealing (PSA) are 62.9% and 20.6%, respectively. Rod-shaped Ti-B-rich phase forms after Ti doping, which leads to the existence of 6:13:1 type RE-Fe-(Cu,Ga) phase with high Fe content at triple junctions. This is beneficial to the formation of continuous thin grain boundaries with low Fe content, which can weaken the exchange coupling interaction between adjacent grains, leading to the improved coercivity.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Rare Earths reports studies on the 17 rare earth elements. It is a unique English-language learned journal that publishes works on various aspects of basic theory and applied science in the field of rare earths (RE). The journal accepts original high-quality original research papers and review articles with inventive content, and complete experimental data. It represents high academic standards and new progress in the RE field. Due to the advantage of abundant RE resources of China, the research on RE develops very actively, and papers on the latest progress in this field emerge every year. It is not only an important resource in which technicians publish and obtain their latest research results on RE, but also an important way of reflecting the updated progress in RE research field.
The Journal of Rare Earths covers all research and application of RE rare earths including spectroscopy, luminescence and phosphors, rare earth catalysis, magnetism and magnetic materials, advanced rare earth materials, RE chemistry & hydrometallurgy, RE metallography & pyrometallurgy, RE new materials, RE solid state physics & solid state chemistry, rare earth applications, RE analysis & test, RE geology & ore dressing, etc.
