Abstract
(Ho,Nd)FeB magnets with different Ho contents were prepared by Ho substitution for part of Nd during the casting process. Effects of Ho contents on the corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of (Ho,Nd)FeB magnets were analyzed by a highly accelerated aging tester, an electrochemical workstation, a microhardness tester, a bending tester, a scanning electron microscope and an X-ray diffractometer. Results show that the addition of Ho can change the main phase structure, optimize the distribution of rare-earth rich (RE-rich) phases in grain boundary, and improve the corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of NdFeB magnets. When the content of Ho increases from 0 to 21.0 wt%, the weight loss of magnets decreases from 2.672 to 0.933 mg/cm2, and the microhardness and bending strength increase from 528.74 HV and 374.92 MPa to 633.84 HV and 459.80 MPa, respectively.
