Definitions

  • the ferrite has a lattice structure of a strong uniaxial magnetic anisotropy and includes in its crystal structure a substitution element selected from the group consisting of Sb, As and P which has at least two valences of which the lowermost is 3 and which forms ions at both valenccs which have a radius substantially equal to or smaller than the radius of the Fe -ions of the ferrite which ions are unable to form a ferromagnetic coupling and which are substituted in their trivalent form for at least part of said Fe ions in at least one sublattice of said lattiee structure.
  • the material is made by sintering a finely ground mixture of the oxides or oxide furnishing compounds, then heat-treating the sintered product in such a manner that it releases part of its oxygen and that the ions are being converted in the lattice structure of the ferrite into their trivalent form; then comminuting the product to single domain grain size and finally tempering it in a nonoxidising atmosphere.
  • the object of the invention accordingly is to provide for a magnetic material and a process of making it wherein the material has a strong uniaxial magnetic anisotropy and assures a reversible temperature modification of the magnetic saturation moment.
  • the invention accordingly resides in a permanent magnet material which comprises a ferrite of the elements barium, strontium, or lead or a combination of these elements.
  • the ferrite has a lattice structure of a strong uniaxial magnetic anisotropy and includes in its crystal structure a substitution element which has at least two valences of which the lowermost is 3 and which forms ions at both valences which have a radius substantially equal to or smaller than the radius of the Fe ions of the ferrite which ions are unable to form a ferromagnetic coupling and which are substitutedin their trivalent form for at least part of said Fe ions in at least one sublattice of said lattice structure.
  • the material is made by sintering a finely ground mixture of the oxides or oxide furnishing compounds, then heat-treating the sintered product in such a manner that it releases part of its oxygen andthat the ions are being converted in the lattice structure of the ferrite into their trivalent form; then comminuting the product to single crystal grain size and finally tempering it in a nonoxidizing atmosphere.
  • FIG. 1 shows interrelation of temperature and magnetic saturation moments in barium ferrites of the invention which are substituted in FIG. 1 with arsenic and in FIG. 2 with antimony and are compared with ferrites which are not substituted in this manner.
  • the important points in the magnetic material of the invention include a substitution component which is constituted by an element, that has, at least two positive valences of which the lowermost valence is 3 while the higher valence or one higher valence preferably is 4 or 5.
  • the radius of the ions of the element at both valences approaches the ion radius of the Fe ions.
  • the mixture of the oxides used as starting products is first reacted by sintering in an oxidizing atmosphere and the product thus obtained is then subjected to a heat treatment in a suitable atmosphere for a time at a temperature to cause it to release part of its oxygen and to cause the ions of the substitution element to be converted in the crystal lattice of the ferrite into trivalent form.
  • a fine grinding is effected to single domain grain size and this is followed by a tempering operation in a nonoxidizing atmosphere.
  • the sintering operation may be effected at temperatures between l,l00 and 1,350C for 1 hour and the heat-treating step may be carried out at a temperature between l,200 and 1,350C for 1 hour in air or nitrogen.
  • substitution components are compounds of the elements Sb, As or P.
  • the substitution is made in a manner to cause 0.5 to l Fe ions to become substituted per molecular unit of ferrite. If the substitution is carried further a loss in the magnetic saturation moment will occur.
  • a heat treatment for removal of part of the oxygen preferably is effected in a manner to cause the product to release about 9% or 1 oxygen atom for each substi- 'tuted Fe ion depending upon whether 1 or 2 valences become available upon change of the substituting ion from its higher valence.

  • FIG. 1 shows a barium ferrite substituted by arsenic as described in Example 1. Its magnetic saturation moment is interrelated with the temperature, being indicated by the solid line, while the dashed line illustrates for a comparison a barium ferrite of the same type which however is not substituted by'arsenic.

  • the ferrite and the-process of making it is described in Example l.
  • the comparison barium ferrite is not substituted by antimony.
  • oxides of the various elements are used or compounds may also be employed instead which furnish oxides during the sintering step.
  • the substitution element must comply with the specifications above given.
  • the components including the substitution element are then mixed in stoichiometric amounts as required by the intended final product.
  • the mixture is subjected to briquetting and in this form is sintered in air which causes a ferrite forming reaction.
  • the briquettes are then crushed, the fragments are ground and the ground product is again subjected to briquetting.
  • the product After the thermal treatment the product already has a crystal structure which is characterized by the decreased reversible temperature dependence of the magnetic saturation moment. It has however not yet a microstructure which permits to attain the optimum value of the coercive force ,H For this reason a further treatment in two steps is preferred: (1) a fine grinding is effected to single domain range and (2) a tempering is carried out in a nonoxidizing atmosphere.
  • the tempering step is in any case necessary if the material resulting from the fine grinding is intended to form a magnetic body in which a synthetic binder is used. On the other hand if sintered shaped bodies are made from the material the sintering which is necessary in this connection will have the same effect. However it will in either case be a condition that a nonoxidizing atmosphere must be used.
