Abstract

NdFeNbB with the additions of Dy 2O 3 and Sn permanent magnets have been attained by means of powder-blending technique, and their magnetic properties, temperature performance and microstructure were studied in this paper. The addition of just 2.0 wt% Dy 2O 3 or 0.3 wt% Sn proved to be very effective in improving the permanent magnetic properties of NdFeNbB magnets. Dy 2O 3 additions result in the increase in the H ci and temperature dependence due to the increase of T c, formation of (NdDy)-rich phase and grain refinement of Φ phase. This improvement of the coercivity stability of the magnets from the addition of Sn is attributed to the smoothing effect of the Sn addition at the grain boundaries. The magnetic properties, the temperature dependence and Curie temperature of NdFeNbB with Dy 2O 3 and Sn combined addition were found to be considerably improved. From the X-ray diffraction, SEM-EDAX studies and the thermo-magnetic study, the improved properties due to the solution of Dy and Sn to the Φ phase, the reduced N eff and the smaller Φ phase.
