Phase evolution and magnetic metals co-substituted studies of La and refractory co-substituted alpha i-Fe/R2Fe14B-type nanocomposites

Phase evolution and magnetic properties of (Nd0.95La0.05)(9.5 similar to 11)Febal.M2B10.5, where M=Cr, Ti, Mb, V, Mo, Zr, Hf, Ta, Mn or W, melt spun ribbons have been investigated. Almost all the alloy ribbons, except for (Nd0.95La0.05)(9.5)Fe78M2B10.5 (M=Mo and Mn), consist merely two magnetic phases, namely alpha-Fe and R2Fe14B, which display a better combination of H-i(c) and magnetic energy product. Remanence (B-r) and coercivity (H-i(c)) values in the range of 8.0 to 9.1 kG and 9.5 to 18.9 kOe, respectively, can be achieved. Among compositions studied, the Ti and W-substitutions were found to be most effective in increasing the Br and H-i(c), respectively. For a fixed refractory metal substitution, namely, M=Cr, Ti or Mb, an increase in the total rare earth concentration resulted in nanocomposites of small grain sizes and a high volume fraction of the R2Fe14B phase, leading to an increase in the magnetic properties.     

Phase Evolution and Magnetic Studies of La and Refractory Metals Co-substituted α-Fe/R_2Fe_(14)B-type Nanocomposites

1. IntroductionIn last decade, two types of NdFeB nanocomposite powders, namely, or-Fe/Nd,Fe,.B['] andFe,B/Nd,Fe,.B['] t have drawn much attention of theresearcher for the bonded magnet application, because of their high remanence (B.) and high maximum energy product ((BH)...). The deficiency ofthese types of nanocomposites is their lower coercivity (tHe <8 hoe) arisen from the existence of certain amount of magnetically soft or-Fe or Fe3B phases,which might limit their application in h…

Development of cost-effective nanocrystalline multi-component(Ce,La,Y)-Fe-B permanent magnetic alloys containing no critical rare earth elements of Dy,Tb,Pr and Nd

Here we first report the fully abundant rare earth(RE)-based nanocrystalline multi-component(Ce,La,Y)-Fe-B alloys containing no critical RE elements of Nd,Pr,Dy,and Tb by melt-spinning technique.The roles of La and Y substitutions for Ce have been fully understood.La plays a positive role on both thermal stability and room-temperature(RT)magnetic properties.The enhanced coercivity Hcj by partial substitution of La is attributed to the increases of anisotropy field HA and the formation of continuously distributed grain boundaries resulting from the suppression of CeFe2 phase.Although Y substitution is not benefit for Hcj,both remanent polarization Jr and thermal stability have been effectively improved since Y2Fe14B shows relatively high saturation magnetization Ms and a positive temperature coefficient of HA over a certain temperature range.In addition,RE element segregation has been confirmed,La prefers to enter into the grain boundaries than Ce and Y prefers to remain in the 2∶14∶1 phase.Based on these understanding,a series of melt-spun(Ce,La,Y)-Fe-B alloys have been designed.A relatively good combination of magnetic properties with maximum energy product(BH)max=7.4 MGOe,Hcj=400 kA/m,and Jr=0.63 T has been obtained in[(Ce0.8La0.2)0.7Y0.3]17Fe78B6 alloy,together with high Curie temperature(Tc=488 K)and low temperature coefficients of remanence(α=-0.255％/K)and coercivity(β=-0.246％/K).     

Research and development of Ce-containing Nd_2Fe_(14)B-type alloys and permanent magnetic materials

Much demanded and overused are the critical rare-earth elements such as Pr, Nd, Dy, and Tb with increasing need of Nd Fe B-type rare-earth permanent magnets in the enlarging application areas, developing new high-tech industries, and emerging cutting-age frontiers. The balance and efficient use of rare-earth resources comes into being the national strategy, national defense, and border safety for many major countries and regions in the world.(Nd,Ce)Fe B-based permanent magnetic materials, which can not only reduce cost but also offer a feasible way for integrated and effective utilization of rare earth resources,have received much attention in recent years. The existence of CeFe_2 and the mixed valence state of Ce in Ce Fe B compound, the different metallurgy behavior and the particular processing as well as potential various magnetic-hardening mechanisms, however, make it quite different from Nd-based alloys.For instance, the coercivity of Ce-containing magnets in some certain composition range, is even higher than that of the counterpart pure Nd-based magnets though the Ce-containing magnets possess inferior intrinsic properties. Consequently, it is very important to design proper composition and structure, optimize processing, and analyze the mechanisms in depth for this kind of magnet. High performance and cost-effective magnets can be fabricated if we can make full use of the composition's inhomogeneous and abnormal coercivity variation of the Ce-containing permanent magnets. In this paper, we have summarized the phase structures, magnetic properties and microstructures of(Nd,Ce)Fe B-based permanent magnetic materials to shed light on further research and development of this type of so-called "gap magnet".     

Promoting the La solution in 2:14:1-type compound:Resultant chemical deviation and microstructural nanoheterogeneity

RE₂Fe₁₄B-based(RE,rare earth)permanent magnets containing abundant and cheap La/Ce have attracted intense attention recently.In comparison with Ce that can fully replace Nd in the 2:14:1 lattice,La substitution for Nd has long been limited at a low level.Here we present that through doping La35 Ce65 alloy with the La/Ce ratio in natural mineral,stable 2:14:1 phase can be maintained at 1273 K within the entire substitution range of[(La₃₅Ce₆₅)、(Pr₂₀Nd₈₀)_1-x]_2.14Fe₁₄B(0.6≤x≤1.0,at.%),as verified by composition analysis,microstructural characterization and magnetic measurements.Interestingly,the promoted La solution in 2:14:1 phase induces two unique findings upon coexisting La-Ce-Pr-Nd:i)Compared to Ce that fits well with the nominal concentration,La deviates noticeably from the nominal one;ii)Nanoscale spinodal-decomposition-like phase separation is observed due to different solubilities of La-Ce-Pr-Nd elements in 2:14:1 phase.Above joint effects induce higher Curie temperature than estimation based on the rule of mixture,which delights the prospect of La₃₅Ce₆₅alloy in developing low-cost permanent materials.

La2Fe14B和Ce2Fe14B合金在快淬和热处理过程中相析出行为的比较

研究了溶体快淬三元La_2Fe_(14)B和Ce_2Fe_(14)B合金的相析出行为和磁性能,对不同快淬速度(10~50 m/s)和不同热处理温度下制备的样品进行了系统分析。结果表明,通过直接快淬,La_2Fe_(14)B合金中不能形成2∶14∶1硬磁相,而Ce_2Fe_(14)B合金可以获得2∶14∶1相。La_2Fe_(14)B合金在10m/s快淬时主要由La和α-Fe相组成,而Ce_2Fe_(14)B合金中2∶14∶1硬磁相在10m/s和20m/s快淬时析出。随着辊速的增加,非晶相逐渐增多并成为主相。在热处理过程中,La_2Fe_(14)B合金析出相以α-Fe和La相为主,并且高温下液态的富La相和α-Fe相可以共存;而Ce_2Fe_(14)B合金中先析出α-Fe,后析出2∶14∶1硬磁相,随后析出相长大。结果还表明,La_2Fe_(14)B比Ce_2Fe_(14)B有更高的非晶居里温度和更低的α-Fe相析出温度。由于硬磁相的析出,Ce_2Fe_(14)B合金可以获得较好的硬磁性能,包括一定的矫顽力。此研究对含La、Ce稀土永磁材料的生产具有一定的指导作用。

Structure and Magnetic Properties of Nd-Fe-B/a-Fe Nanocomposite Magnets by Co, Nb, Dy Substitutions

Structure and magnetic properties of the nanocomposite magnets prepared by mechanical alloying procedure with composition 55 wt pct Nd (Fe0.92B0.08)5.5+45 wt pct a-Fe, 55 wt pct Nd(Fe0.8-xCo0.12Nbx B0.08)5.5+45 wt pct a-Fe (x=0.00, 0.01, 0.03) and 55 wt pct (Nd0.9Dy0.1) (Fe0.77Co0.12Nb0.03B0.08)5.5+45 wt pct a-Fe were studied. It was found that substitution of Co for Fe could significantly improve the permanent magnetic properties of the nanocomposite magnets and typically, the maximum magnetic energy product was increased from 104.8 kJ/m3 (13.1 MGOe) to 141.6 kJ/m3 (17.7 MGOe). In contrast to the case of conventional nominally single-phase magnets, the addition of Nb results in promoting the growth of a-Fe grain and is thus unfavorable for the improvement of permanent magnetic properties of the nanocomposites. Although the addition of Dy can increase the coercivity of the magnets, the increase of magnetic anisotropy of hard phase leads to decrease of the critical grain size of soft phase. Additionally it causes the difficulty of preparing the nanocomposites because it is more difficult to control the grain size of soft phase to meet the requirement of appropriate exchange coupling between hard and soft grains.     

Role of lanthanum in microstructure evolution and enhanced magnetic properties of cerium-containing sintered magnets

In this study, lanthanum was applied to strip cast Ce−Fe−B alloy to improve its phase composition and microstructure. The results reveal that lanthanum doping can significantly enhance the proportion of 2 : 14 : 1 phase and improve the microstructure of Ce−Fe−B alloy. Besides, the influence of the starting alloys structure on the microstructure and magnetic properties of final multi-phases cerium-containing magnets was also systematically investigated. Compared to the multi-phases magnet without lanthanum addition, a pronounced coercivity increment could be distinguished in lanthanum-doping multi-phases magnet, which could be attributed to the finer grain size together with ideal grain boundary. In this work, the superior performance of H_cj = 701.28 kA/m B_r = 1.30 T, and (BH)_max = 313.70 kJ/m³ were obtained by blending Nd−Fe−B alloy with (La_0.35Ce_0.65)-Fe−B alloy to meet 25.0 wt.% lanthanum-cerium utilization content, suggesting that the possibility to develop high abundant rare earth permanent magnetic materials.

Glass Formability and Soft Magnetic Properties of Bulk Y-Fe-B-Ti Metals

The Ti effects on the glass forming ability and the magnetic properties of Y-Fe-B-Ti bulk metallic glasses have been investigated. Substituting 2 and 4 at% Ti for Fe or B in Y6 Fe20 B22 alloys decrease the saturation magnetization （a,） and deteriorate the glass forming ability, respectively. However, substitution of 2 at% Ti for Y in Y6 Fe72 B22 alloy induces larger supercooled region of 72.7 ℃ , which not only makes the bulk glassy rod as large as 3mm in diameter, coercivity （ Hc ） = 0.20e and Curie temperature （Tc） = 268℃ . glass forming ability and also the proper soft magnetic properties. but also results in the superior soft magnetic properties of a, = 126emu/g, Among all Y-Fe-B-Ti bulk amorphous rods, Y4Fe72B22Ti2 displays the best     

Microstructure and magnetic property of M-type SrRe(x)Fe(12-x)O19 by sol-gel method

Magnetoplumbite-type (M-type) SrRE(x)Fe(12-x)O19 (RE = La and Ce, x = 0-1.0) powders were prepared by a citric acid sol-gel technique and subsequent heat treatment. The crystal structure, grain size and magnetic properties were investigated by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The XRD patterns show that SrRE(x)Fe(12-x)O19 (RE = La and Ce) are mainly hexagonal magnetic plumbite structure, and the average grain size of 30-40 nm was calculated using the Scherer's equation based on the XRD spectrum. Substitution of Fe ion by the rare earth La ion causes a significant decrease in intrinsic coercivity (Hc) and a slight decrease in saturation magnetization (Ms) as shown in the magnetization hysteresis loops. However, the Hc rises gradually in a small wave pattern with the increase of doping content of the rare earth Ce. The relation between the crystal structure and magnetic properties was also studied in this work.
