The strip prepared at V = 2.0 m/s possesses suitable thickness and the highest alignment degree of T-1 columnar grains, uniformly distributed Nd-rich phase, and no existence of alpha-Fe phase. This kind of cast strip is an ideal starting material for preparing sintered magnets with high magnetic properties.展开更多
