Abstract
Dielectric CaF <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> layers were introduced into Nd-Fe-Co-Ga-B green compacts which were subsequently sintered into internally segmented anisotropic magnets. Layers with the nominal area density of 0.2-0.3 mg CaF <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> per mm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> were found to increase the electrical resistivity by two orders of magnitude while still allowing the magnets to be cut and polished. The internal segmentation with CaF <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> fully preserves the coercivity of the magnets and is accompanied by only a small decline of the magnet remanence. The fcc Nd <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">1-</sub> <i xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">x</i> Ca <i xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">x</i> (F,O) <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">δ</sub> phase produced by the reaction between the CaF <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> phase and the Nd-rich phase is believed to improve the metallurgical bond between the dielectric layers and magnet matrix. The internal segmentation may be a cost-effective way of manufacturing Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets with low eddy current losses, suitable for motor/generator applications.
