Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving the corrosion resistance of neodymium-iron-boron magnet by carrying out grain boundary diffusion on Al-Cu alloy, belonging to the field of rare earth magnetic materials. According to the method, an Al-Cu alloy ordinary ingot which has a low melting point and high potential is directly used as a surface diffusion source of the neodymium-iron-boron magnet after being coarsely crushed and ball-milled, and an Al-Cu-rich thin layer is formed at the crystal boundary of the neodymium-iron-boron magnet after diffusing heat treatment and annealing heat treatment are carried out, so that the neodymium-iron-boron magnet with high corrosion resistance is obtained. According to the method, Al-Cu alloy is taken as the diffusion source, thus avoiding the phenomenon that the residual magnetism of the magnet is reduced since Al and Cu elements are not directly added into the ingot, and the non-magnetic Al and Cu enter a principal phase so as to generate a magnetic dilution effect; the corrosion resistance and magnetic property of the magnet also can be improved since the grain boundary diffusion can improve the chemical stability of a grain boundary phase, optimize a microstructure, improve the distribution of the grain boundary phase, and increases the density of the magnet.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of rare earth permanent magnet materials, in particular to a method for improving the corrosion resistance of NdFeB magnets by grain boundary diffusion Al-Cu alloys. [0002] technical background [0003] NdFeB magnets are permanent magnet materials with the strongest comprehensive magnetic properties at room temperature in the world today, with high remanence, high coercive force and high magnetic energy product. As a new generation of rare earth permanent magnet materials, NdFeB magnets are widely used in computer technology, transportation, aerospace military industry, automation technology, instrument technology, microwave communication technology, medical treatment, wind power generation and other fields. NdFeB magnets can be divided into sintered NdFeB magnets and bonded NdFeB magnets. Among them, sintered NdFeB magnets have relatively good magnetic properties and are the most widely used. Low corrosion resistan...
