Description
NEODYMIUM/IRON/BORON-BASED PERMANENT MAGNET
Field of the Invention
The invention relates to a permanent magnet, more particularly to a sintered
neodymium/iron/boron-based permanent magnet with high coercivity and high thermal stability. The invention also relates to an electric motor, a generator and an integrated electromotor comprising the permanent magnet.
Background of the Invention
Electric motors with sintered neodymium/iron/boron-based permanent magnets are the vital components in electric vehicle and hybrid electric vehicle (EV/HEV). They show reduced copper losses, high power density, high efficiency, low rotor inertia, and other obvious advantages over induction motors.
The sintered neodymium/iron/boron-based permanent magnets in EV/HEV motors need to have high enough remanence, coercivty and thermal stability, provide high enough magnetic field to secure a stable motor performance within the whole working temperature range (normally from -40 to 180°C).
However, for the neodymium/iron/boron-based permanent magnets, it is not so easy to retain high enough remanence and coercivity at a high temperature up to 180°C, although they have good magnetic properties at ambient temperature, the reason being that their remanence and coercivity will decay significantly as the temperature increases.
Thus, a main challenge for the neodymium/iron/boron-based permanent magnets is how to achieve high enough remanence and coercivity at a temperature up to 180°C (which is especially important for EV/HEV permanent magnet motors). A conventional solution for this challenge is to add substantial quantities of heavy rare earth elements such as terbium (Tb) and dysprosium (Dy) to the permanent magnets. Tb and Dy have a function to increase coercivity and thermal stability of the neodymium/iron/boron-based permanent magnets.
Coercivity is an important property of permanent magnets which measures the resistance of the magnets to becoming demagnetized, that is the magnitude of the applied demagnetizing field required to reduce the induction or magnetization of permanent magnets
to zero after the magnets have been magnetized to saturation. Generally, the larger the coercivity is, the greater the thermal stability of the magnets in a high temperature
environment is and the less they are affected by an external magnetic field. Intrinsic coercivity of the magnets is the permanent magnets' inherent ability to resist demagnetization. For a permanent magnetic material, a high intrinsic coercivity represents its great ability to withstand an external magnetic field.
Thermal stability is the ability of the permanent magnets to resist the change of coercivity and remanence against increasing temperature. The remanence and coercivity of the current commercial magnets will decay at a respective rate of >0.12 /°C and >0.5 /°C as temperature increases from 20°C to 180°C. In order to improve the thermal stability of the permanent magnets, the industries have attempted to introduce high contents of heavy rare earth elements Tb and Dy into the magnets to reduce the impact of the temperature on the remanence and coercivity of the permanent magnets .
However, as market demands for Tb and Dy continuously increase, the market prices of Tb and Dy are rocketing, which significantly increases the production cost of the permanent magnets. How to reduce the production cost is another challenge for the permanent magnets.
US 2007/0137733 Al discloses a sytem of permanent magnet comprising rare earth material (>50wt.% Pr, 0-25wt.% Tb, 0-25wt.% Dy), Co and Ga with addition of Al, Cu, Cr, V, Nb and Zr.

1592KA/m.
EP0680054B2 discloses a RE-Fe-B magnet comprising Dy (and no Tb), Co, C, O and Ag with addition of Al, Si, Sn, Zn, Nb, Mo, V, Cr, Zr, Hf, Ti and Mg, the magent having an intrinsic coercivity ranging from 748 to 1623KA/m.

Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. In the case of conflict, the definitions given in the present description will control.
It is also noted that a list of upper preferable values and lower preferable values of an amount, concentration or other value or paramenter specifically discloses all ranges formed from any pair of an upper preferred value and a lower preferred value, regardless of whether additional ranges are separately disclosed.

The invention provides a novel sintered neodymium/iron/boron-based permanent magnet, consisting of Fe, B, a limited amount of heavy rare earth element Dy and very little or no Tb, light rare earth elements Nd and Pr, a combination of Co, Zr, Cu, Al, Y, Mo, Ti, Ce and/or Gd, and inevitable impurity such as O. The magnet only contains a limited amount of Dy and very little or even no Tb, and yet has high coercivity and high thermal stability.The magnet does not contain Ga, Nb, Cr and Ag.
More specifically, the invention relates to a sintered neodymium/iron/boron-based permanent magnet, comprising:
16 to 25 wt.% of Nd,
4 to 10 wt.% of Dy,
O to 1.2 wt.% of Tb,
2 to 13 wt.% of component R, wherein component R is selected from Pr, Ce, Gd, or Y, or any combination thereof,
1.4 to 9 wt.% of component T, wherein component T is selected from Co, Cu, or Al, or any combination thereof,
0.1 to 0.6 wt.% of component M, wherein component M is selected from Zr, Ti, or Mo, or any combination thereof,
0.9 to 1.1 wt.% of B, and
the balance of Fe.
The permanent magnet according to the invention has an intrinsic coercivity of 2040 to 2745KA/m at 20°C, and a temperature coefficient of intrinsic coercivity of 0.38 to 0.43%/°C.
In the permanent magnet according to the invention, Dy may be present in an amount of 5 to 8 wt.%, and Tb may be present in an amount of 0 to 1 wt.%. Component R is preferably Pr, Ce, or Y, or any combination thereof, and may be present in an amount of 4 to 6 wt.%. Component T is preferably a combination of Co, Cu, and Al, and may be present in an amount of 1.5 to 4.0 wt.%. Component M is preferably Zr, and may be present in an amount of 0.15 to 0.4 wt.%.
In the permanent magent comprising limited amount of Dy and very little or even no Tb according to the invention, the components R, T, and M play an important role in improving the coercivity and thermal stability of the magnet. The presence of these components refines the magnet grains and homogenize the micro structure of the magnet, thereby significantly improving the intrinsic coercivity (compared to the permanent magnet described in US 2007/0137733A1, the intrinsic coercivity at ambient temperature increases by about 64%).
A method of manufacturing the sintered neodymium/iron/boron-based permanent magnet according to the invention is illustrated as follows.
Firstly, alloy strips having said composition are formed. Specifically, industrial pure raw materials (which all are metals or alloys) are smelted in the selected composition by vacuum- induction melting normally at 1380-1420°C (the vacuum degree being 5*10~2 to 7*10~2 Pa), and the raw materials can also be prealloys of master alloys made of the industrial pure raw materials. The smelter is then cast onto a spinning copper wheel which spins normally at 0.6- 3.5 m/s and cast into thin alloy strips having a thickness ranging from 0.1 to 1mm. The smelting process is performed under vacuum to avoid the oxidation of the metals and alloys.
Then, the alloy strips are processed into fine powders. Specifically, the thin alloy strips are hydrogenated at 200KPa in a H2 atmosphere, and then dehydogenated normally at 320°C and 580°C, then ground into fine powders by ball milling or jet milling in the protection of inert gas such as Ar and N2. In case of jet milling, the rotation speed is about 4800Hz. The formed fine powders have particle sizes ranging from Ιμιη to ΙΟμιη, with a mean particle size of about 3.5μιη.
The fine powders are then aligned in a magnetic field with an intensity of 2T and compacted into a green body at a pressure of 40MPa in the protective N2 gas. In this process, particulate grains in the green body magnetically align to one direction, consequently the principal magnetic phase (RE)2Fei4B particles align along their easy axis.
The green body is further pressed and compacted into a higher density body by cold isostatic pressing at a pressure of about 300MPa for a duration of about 30s.
After the above processes, the higher density body is sintered at 900-1150°C for 1-10 hours to approximate its theoretical density. The sintered body is then heat treated at
800~900°C for 1-3 hours and aged at 400~650°C for 1-3 hours, to eventually form a sintered permanent magnet. The sintering, heat treatment and aging processes are conducted under vacuum (the vacuum degree is, for example, 3*10" Pa), and the subsequent cooling process is conducted in a protective inert gas atmosphere (for example, Ar).
The sintered permanent magnet are then machined into different shapes (like the shapes as shown in Figure 2), applied with protective coatings and installed into an EV/HEV motor.
The obtained sintered permanent magnet is analysed and measured. Its chemical composition is analysed by inductive coupling plasma emission spectrograph (ICP). Its
magnetic properties are measured by B-H tracer and physical property measurement system (PPMS), and the temperature coefficients of coercivity and remanence are then calculated.
The sintered neodymium/iron/boron-based permanent magnet according to the invention only contains a limited amount of Dy and very little or even no Tb, and yet has high coercivity and high thermal stability. It is a sintered neodymium/iron/boron-based permanent magnet having high coercivity, good thermal stability and a low production cost.
The following examples are given to illustrate the sintered neodymium/iron/boron-based permanent magnet according to the invention, but are not to be construed as limiting the scope of the invention in any way.
Example 1: A sintered neodymium/iron/boron-based permanent magnet comprising 10 wt.% of Dy and no Tb
Industrial pure raw materials (with a purity of 99%) were mixed in a ratio of 10wt.% Dy, 17.36wt.% Nd, 4.34wt.% Pr, 65.26wt.% Fe, 1.01 wt.% B, 1.0wt.% Co, 0.4wt.% Zr, 0.4wt.% Al and 0.23wt.% Cu, and introduced into a vacuum induction furnace (with a vacuum degree of 6*10"2 Pa), and then smelted at 1420°C for 5 minutes. The smelter was cast onto a spinning copper wheel which spined at 1.7m/s and cast into thin alloy strips having a thickness of 0.5mm. The purpose of vacuum smelting and casting was to avoid the oxidation of the metals and alloys. Then, the thin alloy strips were hydrogenated at 200KPa in a H2 atmosphere, and then dehydrogenated at 320°C and 580°C. After dehydrogenation, the alloy strips were ground into fine powders having particle sizes ranging from Ιμιη to ΙΟμιη with a mean particle size of 3.5μιη by jet milling at a rotation speed of 4800Hz in the protection of N2 gas. The fine powders were aligned in a magnetic field with an intensity of 2T in the protective N2 gas, and compacted into a green body at a pressure of 40MPa. In this aligning moulding process, the principal magnetic phase (RE)2Fei4B particles aligned along their easy axis. The green body was then further pressed and compacted into a higher density body by cold isostatic pressing at a pressure of 300MPa for a duration of 30s. After the above processes, the higher density body was sintered at 1150°C for 2 hours, then heat treated at 900°C for 2 hours and aged at 650°C for 2 hours, to eventually form a sintered permanent magnet. The sintering, heat treatment and aging processes were conducted under vacuum (the vacuum degree was 3*10" Pa), and the subsequent cooling process was conducted in a protective Ar gas atmosphere.
