Since Ti has a strong affinity with N, in the iron-chromium-cobalt magnet alloy of Patent Document 1 to which Ti is added, N that enters from the outside during the manufacturing process is fixed outside the matrix as TiN by Ti. Therefore, since the influence of N can be removed without deteriorating the magnetic properties, it is possible to give good magnetic properties by casting, which cannot be obtained by adding Si alone.

Description
本発明の鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金磁石は、質量比で17~45%Cr、3~35%Co、残部はFeおよび不可避不純物からなる鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金磁石に対して、少なくともTiを添加せしめて、質量比で17~45%Cr、3~35%Co、0.1~0.6%Ti、残部はFeおよび不可避不純物からなる組成とすることが好ましい。更にTi以外の元素を複合的に含有することもできる。例えばTiとSiを複合添加して、質量比で17~45%Cr、3~35%Co、0.1~0.6%Ti、0.1~0.6%Si、残部はFeおよび不可避不純物からなる組成としても良い。目的とする組成の造形体が得られるように各元素の供給材料を所定量計量し混合してなる原材料をるつぼに装填し、高周波溶解し、るつぼ下のノズルから溶融した合金を落下させ、高圧アルゴンで噴霧してガスアトマイズ粉を作製する。このガスアトマイズ粉を分級して鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金粉末を得る。これを原料粉末とする。
パウダーベッド方式の3次元積層造形機を用い、ベースプレート上に供給した原料粉末をレーザ照射により高速溶融・急冷凝固させて造形体を作製し、ベースプレートから切り離す。得られた造形体が本発明の鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金磁石である。積層造形条件は原料粉末の粒径や組成、造形体の大きさ・形状・特性、生産効率等を考慮して適宜定められるが、本発明の合金磁石については、次の範囲から選択することができる。積層造形する際の原料粉末層の一層厚さは20~80μmとすることが好ましい。レーザのビーム径は照射する原料粉末の位置で約0.1mmとすることが好ましい。レーザ出力は200~400Wとすることが好ましい。レーザ走査速度は500~2500mm/sとすることが好ましい。レーザ走査ピッチは0.05~0.15mmとすることが好ましい。原料粉末を高速溶融させるためにレーザ照射によって投入するエネルギーの密度(熱源のエネルギー密度:J/mm3)は35以上が好ましく、35以上、130以下の範囲がより好ましく、50以上、110以下の範囲が更に好ましく、60超、95以下の範囲が更に好ましい。エネルギー密度が小さ過ぎると、磁気特性、特に角型比の低下や欠陥率の上昇を来たし、鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金磁石として実用に供することが困難になる。エネルギー密度が大き過ぎるとレーザ照射位置を中心とする広範囲の原料粉末が溶融し、造形体の形状を維持することが困難になる。エネルギー密度E(J/mm3)はレーザ出力P(W)、レーザ走査速度v(mm/s)、レーザ走査ピッチa(mm)、原料粉末層の一層厚さd(mm)を用いて式(1)から求めた。
造形後には、造形体の溶体化処理、磁場中での熱処理、時効処理を行う。具体的には、溶体化処理では700~1000℃、1~1.5時間で組織をα相とし、磁場中での熱処理は150~300kA/mの磁界中、600~700℃、1~5時間とし、時効処理では600~700℃、0.5~3時間で組織をα1強磁性相とα2常磁性相とに相分離させる。その後、2~8℃/分程度で冷却を行う。
目的とする組成の造形体が得られるように各元素の供給材料を所定量計量し混合してなる原材料をるつぼに装填し、真空中で高周波溶解し、るつぼ下の直径5mmノズルから溶融した合金を落下させ、高圧アルゴンで噴霧してガスアトマイズ粉を作製した。このガスアトマイズ粉を分級して10~60μmの鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金粉末を得た。これを原料粉末とした。

造形体の磁気特性評価はB-Hトレーサーを用いて行った。各造形体のB-H曲線を求め、B-H曲線より、残留磁束密度Br1.39[T]、保磁力HcB48.7[kA/m]、最大エネルギー積(BH)max54.4[kJ/m3]、角型比0.80であった。この磁気特性は、鋳造磁石のそれよりも極めて優れたものであった。なお、磁気特性評価には、欠陥率の画像解析に用いた試験片を使用した。表1に磁気特性を示す。
造形体の元素分析は、走査型電子顕微鏡(SEM:Scanning Electron Microscope)に付随するエネルギー分散型X線分析分光法(EDS:Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy)を用いて行った。分析に用いた試験片は、造形体の一部を小片に切断して樹脂に包埋したのち、包埋した造形体の切断面を鏡面まで研磨仕上げして作製した。分析は走査型電子顕微鏡における加速電圧を15kV、対物レンズから観察表面までの作動距離を10mmとし、観察倍率は1000倍で行った。分析元素は、Al、C、Co、Cr、Fe、Mn、N、O、Si、Tiの10種類とした。表2に元素分析の結果を示す。
上記の走査型電子顕微鏡を用いて実施例1で得られた造形体(積層造形磁石)のSEM像およびTiの分布を示すEDS面分析像を同視野において取得した。用いた試験片は、造形体の一部を小片に切断して樹脂に包埋したのち、包埋した造形体の切断面を鏡面まで研磨仕上げして作製した。分析は走査型電子顕微鏡における加速電圧を10kV、対物レンズから観察表面までの作動距離を10mmとし、観察倍率は1000倍で行った。
レーザ出力350W、レーザ走査速度1750mm/s、走査ピッチ0.11mm、エネルギー密度45.5J/mm3としたことを除いて実施例1と同様にして付加製造法(積層造形法)により鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金からなる造形体を作製し、熱処理して鉄-クロム-コバルト系硬質磁性材料からなる積層造形磁石(鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金磁石)を得た。この積層造形磁石について実施例1と同様に欠陥率の測定、磁気特性の評価、元素分析、およびSEM像・EDS面分析像取得を実施した。欠陥率は0.45%、であり、加工時の割れや欠けを低減できる水準を満たすことが期待されるものであった。
レーザ出力350W、レーザ走査速度2000mm/s、走査ピッチ0.11mm、エネルギー密度39.8J/mm3としたことを除いて実施例1と同様にして付加製造法(積層造形法)により鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金からなる造形体を作製し、熱処理して鉄-クロム-コバルト系硬質磁性材料からなる積層造形磁石(鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金磁石)を得た。
レーザ出力350W、レーザ走査速度800mm/s、走査ピッチ0.11mm、エネルギー密度99.4J/mm3としたことを除いて実施例1と同様にして積層造形法により鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金からなる造形体を作製し、熱処理して鉄-クロム-コバルト系硬質磁性材料からなる積層造形磁石(鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金磁石)を得た。
本比較例では、鋳造によって鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金からなる硬質磁性材料(鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金磁石)を作製した。具体的には、実施例1と同様に作製した原料粉末を溶解炉で溶解したのち、砂型に流し込んで作製した。冷却後、砂型から硬質磁性材料を取り出し、湯口部分の除去およびバリの除去が必要な状態であったため、それを目的とした粗加工を行った。その後、実施例1と同様の熱処理(溶体化処理、磁場中熱処理、時効処理)を行って、鉄-クロム-コバルト系硬質磁性材料からなる鋳造磁石(鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金磁石)を得た。
レーザ出力250W、レーザ走査速度1750mm/s、走査ピッチ0.11mm、エネルギー密度32.5J/mm3としたことを除いて実施例1と同様にして付加製造法(積層造形法)により鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金からなる造形体を作製し、熱処理して鉄-クロム-コバルト系硬質磁性材料からなる積層造形磁石(鉄-クロム-コバルト系合金磁石)を得た。この積層造形磁石について実施例1と同様に欠陥率の測定、磁気特性の評価、元素分析、およびSEM像・EDS面分析像取得を実施した。欠陥率は1.93%であり、加工時の割れや欠けを低減できる水準を十分に満たすことができないおそれがあった。
