Abstract
In present study, sodium silicate, a kind of heat-resistant binder, was used to prepare bonded Nd-Fe-B magnets with improved thermal stability and mechanical strength. Effect of curing temperature and curing time of the new binder to the magnetic properties, microstructure, and mechanical strength of the magnets was systematically investigated. Fracture surface morphology observation show that sodium silicate in bonded magnets could completely be cured at 175°C for 40min, and the magnets prepared under this condition exhibit optimal properties. They exhibit usable magnetic properties of Br of 4.66 kGs, Hcj of 4.84 kOe, and (BH)max of 4.06 MGOe at 200°C. Moreover, the magnets possess high compressive strength of 63MPa.
