SmCo alloys are candidates for high temperature applications, since they have large magnetocrystalline anisotropy field (6-30 T), high Curie temperature (720-920℃), and large energy product (〉200 kJ.m-3) at room temperature. However, the highest service temperature of commercial 2:17 type SmCo magnets is only 300℃, and many efforts have been devoted to develop novel high temperature permanent magnets. This review focuses on the development of three kinds of SmCo based magnets: 2:17 type SmCo magnets, nanocrystalline SmCo magnets, and nanocomposite SmCo magnets. The oxidation protection, including alloying and surface modification, of high temperature permanent magnets is discussed as well.展开更多

The existing permanent deformation models are not suitable for the seismic safety analysis of high dams during strong earthquakes. In this study, a series of large-scale triaxial cyclic loading tests of rockfill materials were performed, and a new permanent deformation model of rockfill materials was developed and validated with three kinds of rockfill materials. The results show that the proposed model can properly reflect the general features of the permanent deformation of rockfill materials. The main features of the model are as follows:(1) relations between the cyclic number and permanent volumetric/shear strain are described by hyperbolic functions, which can avoid underestimating the volumetric deformation occurring during strong earthquakes;(2) the model can capture the effect of the mean effective stress on the permanent volumetric strain, with greater confining pressure correlating to greater permanent volumetric deformation, and the permanent volumetric strain under low confining pressure near the dam crest can be well represented; and(3) the model can reflect the effect of the consolidation stress ratio on the permanent shear strain.展开更多

This simplified approach does not reflect the actual material performance under repeated dynamic traffic loads. There is a little information available on the influence of the local crushed rock properties and compacted layer properties on permanent deformation (PD). This study aims to characterise the local unbound granular materials in Victoria according to their PD behaviour under repeated loads and to develop a suitable shakedown criterion that could describe the PD of the tested materials to simplify the flexible pavement design. Repeated-load triaxial tests were conducted over several samples with a range of moisture contents, gradations, densities, and stress conditions. The laboratory test results showed that PD behaviour was influenced by several factors. In addition, the tested subbase-specified unbound granular materials reflect high PD resistance that is almost equivalent to basequality unbound granular materials. This may indicate that current requirements for the subbase-quality unbound granular materials are over-prescribe. Moreover, as the existing shakedown criterion was not applicable for the multi-stage repeated-load triaxial test and the local tested materials, a new shakedown criterion and new boundaries are proposed based on the PD behaviour. In the proposed criterion, the shakedown ranges are identified based on the curve angle of the PD vs. logarithm of the number of loading cycles, and this new criterion was validated using several materials from existing literature. The local tested base and subbase materials can be assigned as Range A when PD\1%, Range B when 1%\PD\3%, and Range C when PD[3%. The proposed criterion could provide a useful and quick approach to assess the PD of the unbound granular materials with both single and multistages of stresses.展开更多

Compared with other electrical machines, it has the advantages of high torque density and high efficiency for high speed operation. However, because of its complex irregular structure, the manufacturing process using silicon sheets is complicated. Soft magnetic composite material(SMC) is manufactured by powder metallurgy technology, which can produce various shapes of stator core structures, so it is easier to produce various irregular shapes of the stator core. However, the raw SMC material is relatively expensive, and the mechanical strength of SMC is weak. In this paper, a PMCPM with hybrid cores is proposed. With the adoption of hybrid silicon sheet-SMC cores and amorphous alloy-SMC cores, the torque ability of PMCPM can be improved greatly and it can have higher efficiency for more wide operation frequency. Meanwhile, its mechanical strength has been improved and it can be designed for high torque direct drive applications as it is a modular machine. Furthermore, three methods are proposed to reduce the additional eddy current loss which resulted from the employment of hybrid cores in PMCPM.展开更多

In this paper, the commercial nickel coatings adhesion was investigated. The microstructure of the RE-Fe-B without coating was analyzed by scanning electronic microscopy and electrochemical techniques. The interface magnet/coating was studied by scanning electron microscopy and the nickel-plated Nd-Fe-B commercial magnets were tested in a salt spray chamber. The ferromagnetic and RE-rich phases were observed. After the anodic polarization curve, a strong intergranular corrosion was observed and the RE-rich phase was preferentially attacked. The interface magnet/Ni coating presented inter-granular corrosion that can affect the nickel coating adherence. This attack had probably occurred during the electrodeposition process. Not all the samples suffered localized corrosion during the salt spray tests and the Ni triple-layer coating presented a few corrosion points. RE-Fe-B alloy magnets need to be protected with appropriate coatings to each environment to which they will be exposed and the protective coating must not be damaged.展开更多

Repeated load pulse characteristics(i.e. shape, loading period and rest period) are the stress configurations used in the experimental set-up to simulate the passing axle loads. Some researchers and standard testing protocols suggest a rest period of varying durations after a loading phase. A thorough review of existing literature and practises has revealed that there is no agreement about the effect of the rest period of vertical stress pulse on the deformation behaviour of the UGMs. Therefore,the main objective of this study is to investigate the effect of repeated stress rest period on the deformation behaviour of UGMs experimentally. Experiments are conducted, both with and without rest period, using basalt and granite crushed rocks from Victoria, Australia. Furthermore, in order to gain insight into the effect of the rest period, finite element modelling is also developed. Both the experimental and modelling results show that the rest period has a noticeable effect on both resilient and permanent deformation behaviours of UGMs. It is, therefore, recommended to take extra precautions while adopting a particular standard testing protocol and to supplement the results by additional tests with different loading configurations.展开更多

Excellent magnetic properties of the bonded magnet were achieved as follows: B r=0.68 T (6 8 kGs), J H c=620.3 kA·m -1 (7.8 kOe), ( BH ) max =74 kJ·m -3 (9 3 MGOe). The results of TEM photomicrographs confirm that the appearance of α Fe phase is earlier than that of Nd 2Fe 14 B phase during crystallization process. The addition of Cu and Zr elements shows to be advantageous to the improvement of an intrinsic coercivity and squareness of hysteresis loop, as well as energy product.展开更多

文摘Recently,the family of rare-earth chalcohalides were proposed as candidate compounds to realize the Kitaev spin liquid(KSL)[Chin.Phys.Lett.38047502(2021)].In the present work,we firstly propose an effective spin Hamiltonian consistent with the symmetry group of the crystal structure.Then we apply classical Monte Carlo simulations to preliminarily study the model and establish a phase diagram.When approaching to the low temperature limit,several magnetic long range orders are observed,including the stripe,the zigzag,the antiferromagnetic(AFM),the ferromagnetic(FM),the incommensurate spiral(IS),the multi-Q,and the 120°ones.We further calculate the thermodynamic properties of the system,such as the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility and the heat capacity.The ordering transition temperatures reflected in the two quantities agree with each other.For most interaction regions,the system is magnetically more susceptible in the ab-plane than in the c-direction.The stripe phase is special,where the susceptibility is fairly isotropic in the whole temperature region.These features provide useful information to understand the magnetic properties of related materials.
文摘The RE-Fe-B permanent magnets have a complex microstructure and they are susceptible to corrosion process. In this paper, the commercial nickel coatings adhesion was investigated. The microstructure of the RE-Fe-B without coating was analyzed by scanning electronic microscopy and electrochemical techniques. The interface magnet/coating was studied by scanning electron microscopy and the nickel-plated Nd-Fe-B commercial magnets were tested in a salt spray chamber. The ferromagnetic and RE-rich phases were observed. After the anodic polarization curve, a strong intergranular corrosion was observed and the RE-rich phase was preferentially attacked. The interface magnet/Ni coating presented inter-granular corrosion that can affect the nickel coating adherence. This attack had probably occurred during the electrodeposition process. Not all the samples suffered localized corrosion during the salt spray tests and the Ni triple-layer coating presented a few corrosion points. RE-Fe-B alloy magnets need to be protected with appropriate coatings to each environment to which they will be exposed and the protective coating must not be damaged.
文摘China has the world’s largest reserves of rare earth elements.Rare earth permanent magnet material has always been one of the popular industries in the investment market.CAPM is the basic asset-pricing model in financial economics.There are a number of studies conducted to examine the applicability of CAPM to stock markets in different industries and to investigate the modification method to improve the model’s prediction accuracy.In this study,seven leading enterprises in China’s rare earth permanent magnet material industry listed on the A-share market were selected as the research subjects.Based on CAPM,regression analysis was conducted on the monthly data from March 2016 to February 2022.The results demonstrated that using the β coefficient to explain the risk of China’s rare earth permanent magnet industry is ineffective.The ultimate benefit was less affected by market indexes but mainly by non-systematic risks.CAPM has low applicability to China’s rare earth permanent magnet material industry and requires further improvement.Nevertheless,CAPM still has some guiding significance in making enterprise comparisons and investment decisions.

文摘Supercapacitor is an imminent potential energy storage system,and acts as a booster to the batteries and fuel cells to provide necessary power density.In the last decade,carbon and carbonaceous materials,conducting polymers and transition metal oxide/hydroxide based electrode materials have been made to show a remarkable electrochemical performance.Rare-earth materials have attracted significant research attention as an electrode material for supercapacitor applications based on their physicochemical properties.In this review,rare earth metals,rare earth metal oxides/hydroxides,rare-earth metal chalcogenides,rare-earth metal/carbon composites and rare-earth metal/metal oxide composites based electrode materials are discussed for supercapacitors.We also discuss the energy chemistry of rare-earth metal-based materials.Besides the factors that affect the performance of the electrode materials,their evaluation methods and supercapacitor performances are discussed in details.Finally,the future outlook in rare-earth-based electrode materials is revealed towards its current developments for supercapacitor applications.
文摘Repeated load triaxial test is used to assess the deformation behaviour of unbound granular materials(UGMs) in flexible road pavements. Repeated load pulse characteristics(i.e. shape, loading period and rest period) are the stress configurations used in the experimental set-up to simulate the passing axle loads. Some researchers and standard testing protocols suggest a rest period of varying durations after a loading phase. A thorough review of existing literature and practises has revealed that there is no agreement about the effect of the rest period of vertical stress pulse on the deformation behaviour of the UGMs. Therefore,the main objective of this study is to investigate the effect of repeated stress rest period on the deformation behaviour of UGMs experimentally. Experiments are conducted, both with and without rest period, using basalt and granite crushed rocks from Victoria, Australia. Furthermore, in order to gain insight into the effect of the rest period, finite element modelling is also developed. Both the experimental and modelling results show that the rest period has a noticeable effect on both resilient and permanent deformation behaviours of UGMs. It is, therefore, recommended to take extra precautions while adopting a particular standard testing protocol and to supplement the results by additional tests with different loading configurations.
文摘A new rare-earth magnet recycling process developed by researchers at the Critical Materials Institute (CMI) dissolves magnets in an acid-free solution and recovers high purity rare earth elements. For shredded magnet-containing electronic wastes, the process does not require pre-processing such as pre-sorting or demagnetization of the electronic waste.
文摘Nanocrystalline Nd 8.5 Fe 75 Co 5Cu 1Zr 3Nb 1B 6.5 ribbons were prepared by melt spun (18 m·s -1 ) and subsequent heat treatment (670 ℃/4 min). Excellent magnetic properties of the bonded magnet were achieved as follows: B r=0.68 T (6 8 kGs), J H c=620.3 kA·m -1 (7.8 kOe), ( BH ) max =74 kJ·m -3 (9 3 MGOe). The results of TEM photomicrographs confirm that the appearance of α Fe phase is earlier than that of Nd 2Fe 14 B phase during crystallization process. The addition of Cu and Zr elements shows to be advantageous to the improvement of an intrinsic coercivity and squareness of hysteresis loop, as well as energy product.

文摘Mn-based intermetallic compounds have attracted much attention due to their fascinating structural and physical properties,especially their interesting hard magnetic properties.In this paper,we have summarized the magnetic and structural properties of Mn-based intermetallic compounds(Mn X,where X=Al,Bi,and Ga).Various methods for synthesizing single phases of MnAl,MnBi,and Mnx Ga were developed in our lab.A very high saturation magnetization of 125 emu/g,coercivity of 5 kOe,and maximum energy product(BH)_(max)of 3.1 MG·Oe were achieved at room temperature for the pureτ-Mn–Al magnetic phase without carbon doping and the extrusion process.Low temperature phase(LTP)MnBi with a purity above 95 wt.%can be synthesized.An abnormal temperature coefficient of the coercivity was observed for the LTP MnBi magnet.Its coercivity increased with temperature from 100 K to 540 K,reached a maximum of 2.5 T at about540 K,and then decreased slowly to 1.8 T at 610 K.The positive temperature coefficient of the coercivity is related to the evolution of the structure and magnetocrystalline anisotropy field of the LTP MnBi phase with temperature.The LTP MnBi bonded magnets show maximum energy products(BH)_(max)of 8.9 MG·Oe(70 kJ/m^(3))and 5.0 MG·Oe(40 k J/m^(3))at room temperature and 400 K,respectively.Ferrimagnetic Mn_(x)Ga phases with L10 structures(x〈2.0)and D0_(22)structures(x〉2.0)were obtained.All of the above structures can be described by a D0_(22)supercell model in which 2 a-Ga and 2 b-Mn are simultaneously substituted.The tetragonal D0_(22)phases of the Mn_(x)Ga show high coercivities ranging from 7.2 kOe for low Mn content x=1.8 to 18.2 kOe for high Mn content x=3 at room temperature.The Mn_(1.2)Ga sample exhibits a room temperature magnetization value of 80 emu/g.The hard magnetic properties of coercivityiH_(c)=3.5 kOe,remanence M_(r)=43.6 emu/g,and(BH)_(max)=2.5 MG·Oe were obtained at room temperature.Based on the above studies,we believe that Mn-based magnetic materials could be promising candidates for rare earth free permanent magnets exhibiting a high Curie temperature,high magnetocrystalline anisotropy,and very high coercivity.
