Abstract
In this paper bonded NdFeB permanent magnets of the crashed-ribbon type were made as an alternative for circulator magnet to improve their magnetic performance. The fabrication process is also easier than the sintered NdFeB because there had no shrinkage of product (such as sintered barium ferrite magnet), with the others advantages as follows; large freeness of product shapes, high precision of dimension and good corrosion resistance. The dimension of the samples was measured to calculate its bulk densities and the magnetic properties were characterized by Permagraph to obtain values such as; Remanence induction (Br) in kG, Coercivity value (Hcj) in kOe, the Maximum energy product (BH max) in MGOe. Whereas the surface magnetic field strength (B) was observed by the Gauss-meter. The bonded NdFeB permanent magnets revealed 6.39 kG of Br, 6.974 kOe of Hcj and 7.13 MGOe of BHmax. The circulator performance was measured using Vector Network Analyzer (VNA). The optimum values of the circulator measurement at a frequency of 5 GHz show a VSWR value of 1.062 and insertion loss of -0.463 dB. The bonded magnet could be used as component of permanent magnets on the circulator that working on C-Band at a frequency range of 4 GHz - 8 GHz.
