Abstract
A large coercivity increment of 11.63 kOe is obtained by grain boundary diffusion with composite powders of Pr80Al20 surface-coated DyF3. The coercivity increases from the original 12.76 kOe to 24.39 kOe and 23.28 kOe in PA-0.7 and PA-0.9 diffused magnets (Pr80Al20:DyF3 = 7:3, 9:1 in wt%), which shows an increase of 91.15% and 82.45%, respectively. The temperature coefficient of coercivity of diffused magnets is improved due to the high magnetic anisotropy field (HA) of (Nd, Pr, Dy)2Fe14B and the optimized microstructure. Excellent diffusion efficiency and Dy diffusion depth are obtained owing to the betterment of Pr-Al-rich grain boundary (GB) phases. Microstructural features show that the combined strengthening effect of magnetic isolation by the continuous Pr-Al-rich GB phases and magnetic hardening by Dy-Pr-rich shells significantly improve the coercivity of the PA-0.7 and PA-0.9 diffused magnets. Especially, no accumulation of Dy element occurs in the PA-0.9 diffused magnet. The composite diffusion sources provide a new method to improve diffusion efficiency of Dy.
