Description

[根据细则37.2由ISA制定的发明名称] 基于热处理的稀土磁铁用合金粉末和稀土磁铁的制造方法 技术领域
本发明涉及磁铁的制造技术领域,特别是涉及一种基于热处理的稀土磁铁用合金粉末的制造方法和稀土磁铁的制造方法。
背景技术
稀土磁铁是以金属间化合物R2T14B主相为基础的磁铁,这其中,R是稀土元素,T是铁,或者是取代铁和铁的一部分的过渡金属元素,B是硼,其拥有极高的磁性能,被人们称为磁王,其最大磁能积(BH)max是铁氧体磁铁(Ferrite)最大磁能积10倍以上,另外,稀土磁铁的工作温度最高可达200摄氏度,机械加工性能极佳,而且其质地坚硬,性能稳定,有很好的性价比,应用极其广泛。
稀土磁铁的制作工艺有以下二种:一种是烧结稀土磁铁,另一种是粘结稀土磁铁。这其中,又以烧结稀土磁铁的应用最为广泛。现有技术中,烧结稀土磁铁的制作工艺主要包括如下流程:原料配制→熔炼→铸造→氢破粉碎(HD)→气流粉碎(JM)→磁场成形→烧结→热处理→磁性能评价→烧结体中的氧含量评价→加工→表面处理等。
用一句话来概括稀土烧结磁铁的发展史的话,可以说成是提高主相含有率,降低稀土组成的开发过程也不为过。目前,为提高(BH)max、矫顽力,制造方法整体的防氧化技术不断发展,目前烧结磁铁中的氧含量可降至2500ppm以下,但是,烧结中氧含量较低的话,微量成分波动、工序中杂质的混入等不稳定因素的影响也会扩大,这就容易引起过烧结现象和晶粒异常长大(AGG),也会产生矫顽力、方形度、耐热性低下等问题。
发明内容
本发明的目的之一在于克服现有技术之不足,提供一种基于热处理的稀土磁铁用合金粉末的制造方法,其是在气流磨微粉碎工序之后,磁场中成形工序之前,增加细粉热处理工序,以使粉末的烧结性发生剧变,达到制成高矫顽力、高方形度、高耐热性的磁铁的目的。
本发明解决其技术问题所采用的技术方案是:
基于热处理的稀土磁铁用合金粉末的制造方法,所述的稀土磁铁为含有R2T14B主相的磁铁,所述的R为选自包含钇元素在内的稀土元素中的至少一种,所述T为包括Fe的至少一种过渡金属元素,其特征在于,包括如下的步骤:将稀土磁铁用合金粗粉碎后再通过气流磨微粉碎制成细粉,所述细粉在真空或惰性气体气氛中以100℃~1000℃的温度进行6分钟以上24小时以下的热处理获得。
增加细粉热处理工序之所以能够达到如上的效果,这是因为,通过细粉热处理,产生如下的现象:
1)全部的合金粉末表面在真空或惰性气体气氛中不可避的氧化气体作用下均产生了极少量的氧化层,粉末在后续工艺中的氧化活性变弱;
2)合金粉末的锐利边角熔解变圆,减少粉末之间的接触面,可使粉末间的润滑性变好,修复粉末表面晶格缺陷,提高粉末取向度及磁铁矫顽力;
3)通过韧化效果去除粉末表面附近的划痕,可避免因缺陷等造成的烧结促进效果的损失。
上述多种因素综合作用,使粉末的性能发生剧变,达到制成高矫顽力、高方形度、高耐热性的磁铁的目的。
在推荐的实施方式中,所述细粉热处理工序的温度优选为300℃~700℃。
在推荐的实施方式中,所述细粉热处理工序中,对所述细粉进行振动或摇动。细粉热处理工序中,为防止粉末间的附着及凝结,最好是使用旋转炉之类的炉进行处理,可提高生产效率。
在推荐的实施方式中,所述真空状态热处理工序中,压力在10-2Pa~500Pa ,氧含量为0.5ppm~2000ppm,露点为-60℃~20℃。本发明经过大量的试验,控制气氛中氧化气体(包括水和氧气)含量,使全部合金粉末的表面均能产生且仅能产生极少量的氧化层,使得经过上述条件热处理的细粉具有极佳的润滑性,并在后续烧结和重稀土扩散工序中发挥抗氧化性能,以制成高矫顽力、高方形度、高耐热性的磁铁。另外,由于将真空的压力设在500Pa以下,远小于标准大气压的压力,根据平均自由程的公式,氧化气体的平均自由程与压力P成反比,因此,氧化气体与合金粉末发生反应的概率更为均匀,使位于表层、中层和底层的粉末均得以发生氧化反应,从而获得高性能粉末。
在推荐的实施方式中,所述惰性气体气氛热处理工序中,压力在10-1Pa~1000Pa ,氧含量为0.5ppm~2000ppm,露点为-60℃~20℃。效果同上段。
在推荐的实施方式中,所述稀土磁铁用合金是将原料合金熔融液用带材铸件法,以102℃/秒以上、104℃/秒以下的冷却速度冷却得到的。
在推荐的实施方式中,所述粗粉碎的步骤是将稀土磁铁用合金在0.01MPa以上、1MPa以下的氢气压力下保持0.5~6小时进行氢破粉碎,之后抽真空脱氢的步骤。
在推荐的实施方式中,所述稀土磁铁用合金以原子百分比计,其成分为Re Tf Ag Jh Gi Dk ,其中:
R为Nd或包含Nd和选自La、Ce、Pr、Sm、Gd、Dy、Tb、Ho、Er、Eu、Tm、Lu或Y中的至少一种,T为Fe或包含Fe和选自Ru、Co或Ni中的至少一种,A为B或包含B和选自C或P中的至少一种,J为选自Cu、Mn、Si或Cr中的至少一种,G为选自Al、Ga、Ag、Bi或Sn中的至少一种,D为选自Zr、Hf、V、Mo、W、Ti或Nb中的至少一种;以及
e的原子百分比at%为12≤e≤16,
g的原子百分比at%为5≤g≤9,
h的原子百分比at%为0.05≤h≤1,
i的原子百分比at%为0.2≤i≤2.0,
k的原子百分比at%为0≤j≤4,
f的原子百分比at%为f=100-e-g-h-i-k。
需要说明的是,O、N作为操作过程中容易混入的杂质,合金粉末中可能会存在O、N以常规杂质含量的少量混入。
本发明的另一目的在于提供一种稀土磁铁的制造方法。
稀土磁铁的制造方法,所述的稀土磁铁为含有R2T14B 主相的磁铁,所述的R为选自包含钇元素在内的稀土元素中的至少一种,所述T为包括Fe的至少一种过渡金属元素,其特征在于,包括如下的步骤:将稀土磁铁用合金粗粉碎后再通过气流磨微粉碎制成细粉,所述细粉在真空中或惰性气体气氛中以100℃~1000℃的温度进行6分钟以上24小时以下的热处理,之后使用磁场成形法进行成形,在真空或惰性气体中以950℃~1140℃的温度进行烧结。
与现有技术相比,本发明具有如下的特点:
1)将微粉碎后的细粉以100℃~1000℃的温度进行6分钟以上24小时以下的热处理,通过细粉热处理,可使粉末的性能发生剧变,达到制成高矫顽力、高方形度、高耐热性的磁铁的目的;
2)与以往相比,粉末能在比常规方法高20~40℃的高温下进行烧结,并且不会发生晶粒异常长大(AGG),热处理后的粉末能在特别广泛的烧结温度范围都可进行烧结,拓展了生产条件。

从表2可以看出,通过细粉热处理,均匀地在全部粉末表面形成非常薄的氧化膜,可使粉末间的润滑性变好,提高粉末的取向度,这样就可获得较高的Br、(BH)max,且烧结时不易引起晶粒异常长大,可形成较细的组织,矫顽力Hcj激增;另外,通过细粉热处理,粉末表面的锐利部被熔解,形状变圆,局部的反磁场系数变高,这样也可获得较高的矫顽力。且,在成形至烧结的工序,表面形成均匀氧化膜的细粉活性变弱,在成形至烧结的工序,就算接触到大气,也不会发生激烈的氧化,而没有经过热处理的细粉则活性较强容易氧化,在成形至烧结的工序,就算只接触到一点点的大气,也会发生激烈的氧化,导致烧结体的氧含量变高。
需要说明的是,在细粉的热处理温度超过1000℃时,细粉粒子表面生成的氧化膜容易扩散到粒子内,结果就会同无氧化膜一样,粉末间的附着力变高,这样的话,Br、(BH)max会变得极差,且烧结时就容易产生晶粒异常长大(AGG),使矫顽力Hcj降低。
以往,在低氧含量工序中,由于磁铁粉末间的粘着力很强,存在磁铁粉末取向度不高的问题,这样也会存在磁铁Br、(BH)max低下的问题,且由于磁铁粉末间表面活性度很高,烧结时晶粒和晶粒容易融着,就会产生晶粒异常长大(AGG),使矫顽力急降,在使用了本发明的方法之后,上述问题同样得以解决。

从表6可以看出,在700℃的温度下,细粉的热处理时间不满0.1小时之时,细粉热处理的效果不充分,这样就会和同没有氧化膜时一样,粉末间的附着力变高,这样的话,Br、(BH)max会变得极差。另外,也容易产生AGG,使矫顽力降低。
同时,在700℃的温度下,细粉热处理时间超过24小时之时,细粉粒子表面生成的氧化膜被吸收扩散到粒子内,结果就会同无氧化膜一样,会使氧含量增加,Br、(BH)max降低,极易产生AGG,使矫顽力Hcj降低。
