In short, in the R-Fe-B-C type magnet, R reacts with C to form the R-C phase, and R is consumed, so that R-Fe-B is required to obtain the required magnetic characteristics. It requires a larger amount of R than the system magnet. Therefore, since there are many RC phases that do not contribute to the magnetic characteristics, the abundance of the main phase is reduced, Br is lower than that of the R—Fe—B based magnet, and expensive R
Since a large amount is required, the cost is increased, and there is a problem that the magnetic characteristics are deteriorated and varied with the increase of the oxygen content.

When an attempt is made to produce a —C-based sintered magnet, it becomes difficult to pulverize particularly when finely pulverizing because α-Fe crystallized in the alloy lump and the R-rich phase are locally distributed. There was a problem such as deviation.

On the other hand, when a molten slab of R-Fe-B alloy is produced with a quenching roll, even if the slab is cooled at a speed that optimizes the magnetic characteristics, the slab roll is used. There is a difference in the crystal grain size on the contact surface side and the opposite side, the region where a preferable crystal grain size can be obtained is extremely narrow, and the magnetic properties in the cooling direction of the quenched alloy cast piece become non-uniform,
In order to reduce the dependency of the magnetic characteristics on the roll peripheral speed, it has been proposed to arrange the average roughness Ra of the peripheral surface of the quench roll within a specific range of 0.07 μm to 5 μm (JP-A-4-28457). .

Further, in order to reduce the difference between the cooling rate on the slab roll contact surface side and the cooling rate on the opposite side, a quenching roll of copper or copper alloy is provided with a surface layer of Cr or the like having an optimum thickness.
It has been proposed (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-55042) to control heat transfer in a quench roll during cooling of the molten alloy. However, the slab that is the target of the proposed method has a small dimension such that the width (L) in the case of producing a super-quenched ribbon for a bonded magnet having an average crystal grain size of 1 μm or less is 2 mm and a thickness is about 45 μm.

In the case of industrial mass production of R-Fe-B or R-Fe-B-C type alloy slabs, for example, the width (L) dimension of the slab is 50 mm or more and the thickness is 0.01. ~
About 1.0 mm is desirable, but this slab size is more than 25 times larger than the slab size of the proposed method, so when casting with a quenching roll, the slab center and its width direction Although the cooling rate in the vicinity is fast, the vicinity of both sides warps upwards of the cooling roll during cooling, so contact with the quenching roll becomes insufficient, and due to the difference in crystal grain size in the thickness direction of the slab, the width direction The difference in the crystal grain size becomes large, and the crystal grain size in the vicinity of both sides becomes larger than the crystal grain size in the vicinity of the center, so that there is a possibility that the magnetic properties of the obtained magnet may be deteriorated or varied.

When a B-C magnet alloy slab is cast with a quenching roll, the crystal grain size of the obtained slab in the vicinity of the center and both sides in the width direction is made uniform to deteriorate the magnetic properties of the obtained magnet. As a result of various studies on the structure of the quenching roll for the purpose of preventing variation, the surface roughness of the wear-resistant metal layer coated on the surface of the quenching roll was measured in the vicinity of the widthwise center of the roll surface in contact with the molten alloy. The present invention has been completed by finding that a quenched slab having a fine and uniform crystal grain size can be obtained by roughening both side portions to a specific roughness from the portion.

According to the present invention, the surface roughness of the wear-resistant metal layer coated on the surface of the quenching roll is determined by the specific roughness R near the center of the width T of the roll surface in contact with the molten alloy.
than a 2, identify the sides near portion consisting width t, t roughness Ra 1
By quenching to a large size, a quenching cast piece of a large R-Fe-B system or R-Fe-B-C series magnet alloy having a cast piece width of 50 mm or more and a thickness of about 0.01 to 1.0 mm is industrially produced. Even in the case of mass production, as is clear from the examples, the difference in crystal grain size in the width direction of the cast slab is small, the magnetic properties of the obtained magnet are reduced, the variation is reduced, or the corrosion resistance is excellent.
It is possible to obtain a -Fe-B-based or R-Fe-B-C-based alloy slab.
