Abstract
NdFeB based permanent magnetic nanocomposites were prepared by depositing soft magnetic Fe, Co, or Fe65Co35 nanoparticles on the melt spun NdFeB powders with near single phase composition by a chemical reduction method. The effects of the reduction process, the composition, and the concentrations of metal ions on the magnetic properties of nanocomposites were investigated. Introducing and increasing soft nanoparticle content improved the remanence and maximum energy product of the nanocomposites at the expense of coercivity. Fe65Co35 coated NdFeB powders had higher remanence and energy product than Co or Fe coated powders. The inter-grain exchange coupling between hard and soft magnetic grains was demonstrated by the smooth demagnetization curve with high remanent polarization. Remanence enhanced bulk magnets were also fabricated by consolidating the nanocomposite powders using spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique.
