Abstract

In this study, we report the effect of magnetic field annealing (MA) in relieving the stress induced during the milling of Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets. The effect of MA processing parameters and particle size on the magnetic properties were investigated. Based on the results, magnetic field annealing is more effective in improving the magnetic properties of larger size particles, compared to finer particles. Our computational study on the role of particle surface defects in bimodal particle distribution agrees with results obtained experimentally. Magnetic field annealed powder has been successfully used to develop 4.6 g.cm −3 density bonded magnets with 75 vol% of magnetic powder and polyamide 12 (nylon 12) polymer binder resulting in 11.3 MGOe energy product.
