摘要
To investigate the coercivity,corrosion resistance,and thermal stability of Nd-Fe-B magnets,their properties were investigated at room and high temperature before and after doping with Dy(80)Ga(20)(at.%) powder.The coercivity of the magnets increased from the undoped value of 12.72 kOe to a doped value of 21.44 kOe.A micro-structural analysis indicates that a well-developed core-shell structure forms in the magnets doped with Dy(80)Ga(20) powder.The improvement in magnetic properties is believed to be related to the refined and uniform matrix grains,continuous grain boundaries,and a hardened(Nd,Dy)2Fe(14)B shell surrounding the matrix grains.Additionally,the doped magnets exhibit an obvious improvement in thermal stability.For the magnets with added Dy(80)Ga(20) powder,the temperature coefficients of remanence(α) and coercivity(β) increased to-0.106%℃-(-1) and-0.60%℃-(-1) over the range 20-100 ℃,compared to temperature coefficients of-0.117%℃-(-1)(α) and-0.74%℃-(-1)(β) in the regular magnets without Dy(80)Ga(20) powder.The irreversible loss of magnetic flux(Hirr) was investigated at different temperatures.After being exposed to 150 ℃ for 2 h,the Hirr of magnets with 4 wt.%Dy(80)Ga(20) decreased by -95%compared to that of the undoped magnets.The enhanced temperature coefficients and Hirr indicate improved thermal stability in the doped Nd-Fe-B magnets.The intergranular addition of Dy(80)Ga(20) also improved the corrosion resistance of the magnets because of the enhanced intergranular phase.In a corrosive atmosphere for 96 h,the mass loss of the sintered magnets with 4 wt.%Dy(80)Ga(20) was 2.68 mg/cm-2,less than 10%of that suffered by the undoped magnets(28.1 mg/cm-2).
