Definitions
- the invention relates to a hard magnetic film based on polymer, in particular for use in electric motors or for sensor applications, and to a method for the production thereof.
- the object of the present invention was therefore to provide a flexible, hard magnetic material of small thickness and an economical process for its production.
- this object is achieved by the film according to claim 1 and the manufacturing method according to claim 9.
- carrier-free means here that the finished foils do not - like, for example, the foils known as magnetic tapes or "floppy disks" - consist of a non-magnetic carrier and a magnetizable one or both sides. 2-sided coating are built up, but consist of a single continuous magnetic or magnetizable layer.
- the hard magnetic powder expediently has an average particle size of less than 100 ⁇ m, preferably one of less than 20 ⁇ m.
- the films according to the invention advantageously have a thickness of 50 to 2000 ⁇ m, preferably that of 100 to 500 ⁇ m.
- the volume fraction of the hard magnetic powder in the magnetic film according to the invention can be adjusted as required. It is preferably at least 50%, particularly preferably at least 60%. It is possible to keep the polymer content so low that the polymer practically only fills the gaps in an approximately tight packing of the powder particles.
- the foils according to the invention preferably contain one or more rare earth alloy (s) as hard magnetic powder.
- rare earth alloy s
- other hard magnetic materials such as Al-Ni-Co or Cr-Fe-Co alloys or ferrites.
- Rare earth alloys which can be described by the general formulas SECo 5 , (SE) 2 (Co, Fe, Cu, Zr) 17 or (SE) 2 Fe 14 B are particularly preferred.
- SE means an element from the group consisting of yttrium, lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium, europium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, thulium, ytterbium and lutetium or a mixture of several of these elements.
- the compositions Sm 2 (Co, Fe, Cu, Zr) 17 and (Pr, Nd, Dy) Fe 14 B are very particularly preferred. Alloys of these types are, for example, under the brands VACOMAX ® and VACODYM ® from Vacuumschmelze GmbH or available under the MAGNEQUENCH ® brand from Magnequench Inc.
- the polymer matrix can basically consist of any polymer that is soluble or dispersible in volatile solvents. However, it is also possible to use polymers which are suitably made in thin form from low-viscosity monomers or oligomers 3
- Soluble thermoplastic materials are preferably used, in particular soluble polyvinylidene fluoride.
- non-thermoplastic materials such as, for example, one-component polyurethane dispersions.
- the hard magnetic powder particles can be randomly arranged (isotropically) or, if they have an inherent anisotropy, optionally aligned. They are preferably aligned parallel or perpendicular to the film surface.
- the magnetic remanence of the magnetic foils according to the invention is determined by the type and packing density of the hard magnetic powder particles and is preferably 0.2 to 0.8 Tesla.
- the magnetic foils according to the invention can be produced, for example, by (i) dispersing a powder of a hard magnetic material in a solution or dispersion of a polymer material in a volatile solvent, (ii) pouring the dispersion thus obtained as a film of defined thickness onto a rotating casting belt, ( iii) the solvent evaporates and (iv) the film thus formed is pulled off the casting belt.
- the magnetization of the film can take place after the evaporation of the solvent or at a later point in time (e.g. after assembly), an isotropic magnetic film being obtained because of the incorporation of the magnetic particles in the polymer matrix.
- Orientation prior to solidification of the cast film is particularly preferred. Particles made of an anisotropic material can align themselves in the external magnetic field, so that an anisotropic magnetic film is obtained. 4
- the magnetization and optionally alignment can preferably be carried out by means of a pulsed magnetic field.
- a pulsed magnetic field As a result, high field strengths can be achieved with low energy consumption using electromagnets.
- Hard magnetic powder particles that are particularly easy to orientate can also be oriented in the air gap of a suitable permanent magnet yoke.
- a rare earth alloy is preferably used as the hard magnetic powder.
- Soluble polyvinylidene fluoride (copolymer) is preferably used as the polymer material.
- a preferred volatile solvent for soluble polyvinylidene fluoride (copolymer) is acetone.
- the continuous casting belt is preferably made of matt stainless steel.
- the actual pouring device comprises a temperature-controllable storage container 1 with a stirring device for the pouring solution or dispersion, a controllable feed pump 2, a filter device 3 for separating agglomerates and the pourer 4.
- the pouring solution or dispersion is poured onto an endless pouring belt 5, which revolves over rollers 6, 7 and is heated indirectly by heating elements 8.
- the casting belt is driven via one of the rollers, which is provided with a speed-controlled drive 16.
- the magnetic film can optionally be subjected to post-drying in a drying section 12 before being wound up on a winding mandrel 13, the film advantageously from a carrier web 14 is supported.
- the carrier web can optionally also serve as a separating film and can be applied together with the magnetic film. 5 can be wrapped (not shown).
- an electromagnet or permanent magnet yoke 17 is advantageously mounted at a short distance above the casting belt.
- the entire pouring and drying device is advantageously surrounded by a housing 15, which reduces heat losses and, in combination with a suction and filter device, prevents the load on the production rooms from solvent vapors.
- Gear pumps or peristaltic pumps, for example, can be used as feed pumps 2.
- the pourer 4 can be designed both as a die-casting machine, in which the casting solution is supplied directly to the casting gap by the feed pump 2 with increased pressure, and also as an open stripper, which works solely with hydrostatic pressure. In both cases, the pressure or the fill level is advantageously kept constant by appropriate control of the pump output.
- the film thickness is essentially determined by the width of the casting gap between the caster 4 and the casting belt 5.
- the heating devices 8 preferably supply the heat as radiant heat. Warm air is advantageously supplied to support the drying process and to remove the solvent vapors. It is also possible to transfer the heat to the casting belt, for example via heated rollers, or to heat it by direct current passage or inductively. Finally, the cast film can also be heated by microwave energy.
- the casting device can be provided with one or more cooling devices 9. These can be designed, for example, as coolable drums or rollers, over which the casting belt 5 is guided, so that the cooling takes place indirectly.
- devices for direct cooling of the film are also possible, for example in the form of suitably arranged nozzles for inflating cold air or other cooling media. A combination of both measures is of course also possible.
- the removal device 10 is expediently designed such that no excessive pull is exerted on the film, which could lead to undesired stretching or even tearing of the film.
- the removal device advantageously consists of a roller or 6 a pair of rollers which exerts a controlled tensile stress on the film and is preferably arranged in such a way that a take-off angle of 15 ° to 45 ° results.
- a cutting and stacking device can alternatively be provided in order to deposit the film as a stack of sheets.
- the total solids content of the casting solution thus obtained was 78.3% by mass, the volume fraction of the magnetic powder after drying was approx. 63%>.
- a film with a thickness of 120-140 ⁇ m was produced using the casting device described above.
- the film thus obtained had a density of 2.9-3.3 g / cm 3 .
- films with a thickness of 220-230 ⁇ m and a thickness of 230-235 ⁇ m with densities of 3.6-3.7 g / cm 3 and 4.0-4.1 g / cm 3 were also obtained - poses.
- the foils had a remanence of 0.2-0.29 T with a coercive field strength of
- the procedure was as described in Example 1, but an NdFeB magnet powder was used instead of the Sm 2 (Co, Cu, Fe, Zr) 17 magnet powder.
- the magnetic film thus obtained had a thickness of 315 ⁇ m, a density of 4.11 g / cm 3 and a remanence of 0.35 T with a coercive field strength of 11.4 kOe.
- the demagnetization curve of this film is shown in Figure 3.
- Example 2 The procedure was as in Example 2 except that an anisotropic NdFeB magnet powder of the type Magnequench MQP-T ® was used, and the film exposed after 0.5 min drying time, a magnetic field of 2.4-2.9 kOe parallel to the surface, so that could align the powder particles in the not yet solidified film.
- the finished anisotropic film had a thickness of 333 ⁇ m, a density of 4.0 g / cm 3 , a remanence of 0.505 T parallel to the surface and a coercive field strength of 11.5 kOe.
- the demagnetization curve of this film is shown in Figure 4.
- Example 2 Magnetic powder: VACOMAX ® 240
- the procedure was analogous to Example 1 (magnetic powder: VACOMAX ® 240), but after 0.5 min drying time the film was exposed to external magnetic fields pulsed to align the anisotropic powder particles parallel to the surface.
- the field strength was varied between 15 kOe (12 kA / cm) and 45 kOe (36 kA / cm).
- the demagnetization curves of the anisotropic magnetic foils thus obtained are shown in Figure 5 together with that of a corresponding isotropic foil. It can be seen that the remanence increases parallel to the surface from 0.26 T for the isotropic film to 0.46 T after alignment at 45 kOe.
- the corresponding values after alignment at 15 kOe, 20 kOe and 30 kOe are 0.37 T, 0.41 T and 0.43 T.
- Degree of orientation f 0 improved from 0.5 for the isotropic magnetic foil to 0.95.
- the coercive field strength decreases due to the improved orientation from 11.5 kOe for the isotropic magnetic foil to approx. 9 kOe for the anisotropic magnetic foil.
