New sintered high-temperature Sm-Co based permanent magnet materials
New sintered Sm-Co based permanent magnet materials have been developed to meet the high-temperature ({ge}400 C) application requirement of advanced power systems. A magnet of Sm(Co{sub bal}Fe{sub 0.09}Cu{sub 0.09}Zr{sub 0.03}){sub 7.69} shows an intrinsic coercivity ({sub M}H{sub c}) approaching 13 kOe and an energy product of 14 MGOe at 400 C. Its second-quadrant induction demagnetization curve is a straight line at temperatures to 500 C. Magnets with improved temperature coefficient of {sub M}H{sub c} have been obtained by reducing the Fe content and increasing the Sm content. An abnormal and complex temperature dependence of {sub M}H{sub c} was observed in sintered Sm(Co{sub bal}Fe{sub 0.04}Cu{sub 0.09}Zr{sub 0.02}){sub 7.26}. Upon heating, the {sub M}H{sub c} first reached a minimum of 4.4 kOe at 150 C and then gradually increased to a maximum of 7.5 kOe at 500 C.
