Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method of manufacturing rod-shaped magnetically anisotropic permanent magnet bodies having a cubic crystal structure and a (100) direction of the crystals which is substantially axially oriented from an alloy containing, in addition to, Fe and the normally present impurities, 16-42% of Co, 7-20% of Ni, 6-11% of- Al, 010% of Cu, 110% of Ti, 0-4% of Nb, 08% of Ta, 0l% of Si, 01% of S, a melt of the said alloy being cooled in a temperature gradient.
  • Normally-present impurities are to be understood to mean herein those impurities which are already present in the raw materials. In general they total approximately 0.5%.
  • alloys in the aforesaid range which contain given quantities of Co and Ti may show very high coercive forces, (up to 2000 oersted)
  • Further means are provided to avoid heat flowing away to an undesired extent in a lateral direction, for example, additional heat. It is possible in this manner to obtain a (BH) value of 5.5 10 g.0., which is reproducible in mass production.
  • this method consists in that the molten alloy is continuously applied to the top of a vertically arranged pipe, the rod of the molten alloy being continuusly, or discontinuously, drawn out of the pipe on the lower side.
  • the desired crystal orientation in axial direction is obtained by withdrawing the heat through the rod itself in one direction-the longitudinal direction of the rodwhich can even be promoted by additionally cooling the part of the rod emerging out of the pipe.
  • the pipe be insulated in a transverse direction and/ or heated by additional means so as to check the thermal losses.
  • magnets without crystal orientation can be mass produced which show high coercive forces of 1000 0e. and more in a reproducible manner.
  • a very good representative of this group is, for example, the alloy consisting of 34% of Co, 14.5% of Ni, 7% of A1, 4.5% of Cu, 5% of Ti, rest Fe and the impurities normally present. With this alloy magnets can be mass-produced without crystal orientation having (BH) values of 4-5 10 go. and coercive forces of 1300-1500 oe.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a method of manufacturing anisotropic permanent magnets consisting of a Co-Ni-Al-Me alloy having a (BH) value of at least 9.0 l g.o.
  • the invention is based on the discovery that in order to obtain magnetically anisotropic permanent magnets having a high (BH) value and a high coercive force from the aforesaid group of alloys, the conditions at the solidification front, or points at which solidification of the melt occurs, must be optimum. In addition to the withdrawal of heat in the axial direction, additional measures must be taken to insure formation of the desired crystal orientation, a criterion for which is that the (BH),,,,,,, value must be at least 9X 10 gauss-oersted. Thus, it has been found that the solidification rate R must meet special requirements dependent upon the composition of the alloy and dependent upon quantities determined by the apparatus used.
  • the solidification rate R (mm/min.) for a given Ti-content, a given temperature gradient G C/mm.) then is kept below a given maximum value.
  • the temperature gradient adjusts in a particular oven, the temperature gradient at the solidification front in the melt-which, ultimately, is decisive of the product to be manufacturedwill differ considerably from the first mentioned gradient. This difference is determined principally by the rate R with which the solidification front moves so that this rate R is the most important variable quantity.
  • the solidification of the alloy begin after the melt has been contacted with a seed which has a dendritically formed boundary surface oriented in the direction.
  • a seed for example, a cubic monocrystal of an alloy of the composition: 23% of Co, 14% of Ni, 3% of Cu, 8% of Al, and the balance Fe, may be used.
  • Such an alloy is also known in the trade at Ticonal G/G.
  • the oxide skin which is always present on the surface of such a melt (both of a partially molten seed and on the molten alloy to be contacted therewith) must be removed.
  • This oxide skin between the seed and the melt may be removed by means of cryolite (Na AIF which can be provided on the boundary surface of the seed before the melt and the seed are contacted with one another.
  • cryolite Na AIF which can be provided on the boundary surface of the seed before the melt and the seed are contacted with one another.
  • the oxide skin may also be removed mechanically. This may be done, for example, with a stirring rod.
  • the skin can be removed by convection flows in the melt, but convection flows only will be sufiiciently operative when the diameter of the melt is large 10 mm.). The skin may be forced upwards by said flows.
  • Example I A rod, 2 cm. long, 20 mm. diameter, of an alloy having the composition:
  • a layer of cryolite was provided on the boundary surface between the seed and the rod.
  • a ceramic pipe was slid over the rod and the seat, after which the assembly was placed in a vertical oven.
  • the rod was melted in an atmosphere of cleaned argon gas.
  • the position of the pipe in the oven was chosen to be such that part of the oriented seed also melts.
  • the rate R was 0.15 mm./min.
  • Example IV A rod, diameter 20 mm., of an alloy having the composition:
  • the rate R was 2 mm./ min.
  • a method of manufacturing rod-shaped magnetically anisotropic permanent magnet bodies having a cubic crystal structure and a (100) direction of the crystals oriented substantially axially from an alloy consisting of 16-42% of Co, 720% of Ni, 611% of Al, 010% of Cu, 1-10% of Ti, 04% of Nb, 0-8% of Ta, 0l% of Si, 01% of S and the balance principally Fe comprising the steps of forming a melt of the said alloy, contacting the melt with an oxide-free seed having a cubic crystal structure, the (100) direction of which is oriented axially and which is miscible in the liquid phase of the melt, the seed during contact with the melt partially melting and forming a dendritic boundary surface with an axially oriented 100) direction of the crystal, and cooling the melt at a predetermined solidification rate R (mm./min.), which for a given temperature gradient G C./min.) at the solidification front is kept below a predetermined maximum value, which increases as the Ticontent decreases, where
