Microstructure of strip cast alloys for high performance NdFeB magnets

Abstract

Applications of strip cast (SC) alloys for production of high performance Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets are increasing rapidly. Because of the fast cooling rate during the codification, the formation of detrimental {alpha}-Fe dendrites and of large pools of Nd rich phase are suppressed, hence improving the magnetic properties of the magnets. We have investigated the influence of the composition on the microstructure of the SC alloys and found: (1) the formation of {alpha}-Fe can be suppressed if the alloy contains Nd more than 28.5 wt % in Nd-Fe-B ternary alloys, (2) no {alpha}-Fe formation occurs in the SC alloys with 10 wt % or more substitution of Nd by Dy even for the 2-14-1 stoichiometric alloys, (3) the Dy substitution increases the tendency for 2-17 phase formation.
