The hard magnetic properties of Fe-Mm-B alloys have been studied in melt-spun ribbons and sintered magnets. The as-spun ribbons were magnetically soft and high coercive fields (H/sub c/approx.7 kOe) were obtained after a heat treatment at about 700 /sup 0/C. This caused crystallization of the sample into the Mm/sub 2/Fe/sub 14/B phase. The magnetization and Curie temperature of the crystallized samples were found to be 70 emu/g and 250 /sup 0/C, respectively. The coercive fields of Mm-Fe-B sintered magnets is lower. Small additions of Al and Dy/sub 2/O/sub 3/ are found to increase the coercive field in the range of 6--10 kOe.
