Example 1

[0119] The neodymium-iron-boron magnet materials were prepared as follows:

[0120] (1) Melting and casting process: according to the formulations shown in Table 1, the prepared raw materials were put into a crucible made of alumina and vacuum melted in a high-frequency vacuum induction melting furnace and in a vacuum of 5×10.sup.−2 Pa at a temperature of 1500° C. or less. After vacuum melting, the melting furnace was fed with Ar gas to make the air pressure reach 5.5×10.sup.4 Pa and then casting was carried out, and a cooling rate of 10.sup.2° C./sec-10.sup.4° C./sec was used to obtain the quench alloy.

[0121] (2) Hydrogen decrepitation process: the melting furnace with quench alloy placed therein was evacuated at room temperature, and then hydrogen gas of 99.9% purity was passed into the furnace for hydrogen decrepitation to maintain the hydrogen pressure at 0.15 MPa; after sufficient hydrogen absorption, it was sufficiently dehydrogenated by heating up while vacuum-pumping; then it was cooled and the powder after hydrogen decrepitation was taken out.

[0122] (3) Micro-pulverization process: the powder after hydrogen decrepitation was pulverized by jet mill for 3 hours in nitrogen atmosphere with oxidizing gas content of 150 ppm or less and under the condition of the pressure of 0.38 MPa in the pulverization chamber, and fine powder was obtained. The oxidizing gas refers to oxygen or moisture.

[0123] (4) Zinc stearate was added to the powder after jet mill pulverization, and the addition amount of zinc stearate was 0.12% by weight of the mixed powder, and then it was mixed thoroughly by using a V-mixer.

[0124] (5) Magnetic field forming process: a rectangular oriented magnetic field forming machine was used to conduct primary forming of the above-mentioned powder with zinc stearate into a cube with sides of 25 mm in an orientation magnetic field of 1.6 T and a forming pressure of 0.35 ton/cm.sup.2; after the primary forming, it was demagnetized in a magnetic field of 0.2 T. In order to prevent the formed body after the primary forming from contacting with air, it was sealed, and then secondary forming was carried out at a pressure of 1.3 ton/cm.sup.2 using a secondary forming machine (isostatic forming machine).

[0125] (6) Sintering process: each formed body was moved to a sintering furnace for sintering, the sintering was maintained under a vacuum of 5×10.sup.−3 Pa and at a temperature of 300° C. and 600° C. for 1 hour, respectively; then, sintered at a temperature of 1040° C. for 2 hours; and then Ar gas was passed in to make the air pressure reach 0.1 MPa, and cooled to room temperature to obtain sintered body.

[0126] (7) Aging treatment process: the sintered body was heat treated in high purity Ar gas at a temperature of 500° C. for 3 hours and then cooled to room temperature and taken out.

Cooled to room temperature.

Example 54 Using Tb Grain Boundary Diffusion Method

[0129] The number 1 in Table 1 was first prepared according to the preparation of the sintered body of Example 1 to obtain a sintered body, followed by grain boundary diffusion, and then aging treatment. Wherein the process of aging treatment is the same as in Example 1, and the processing procedure of grain boundary diffusion is as follows:

[0130] The sintered body was processed into a magnet with a diameter of 20 mm and a thickness of less than 7 mm, and the thickness direction is the magnetic field orientation direction, after the surface was cleaned, the raw materials formulated with Tb fluoride were used to coat the magnet through a full spray, and the coated magnet was dried, and the metal with Tb element was attached to the magnet surface by sputtering in a high-purity Ar gas atmosphere, diffusion heat treatment was carried out at a temperature of 850° C. for 24 hours. Cooled to room temperature.

[0134] FE-EPMA inspection: the perpendicularly oriented surface of the magnet material of Example 23 was polished and inspected using a field emission electron probe micro-analyzer (FE-EPMA) (Japan Electronics Corporation (JEOL), 8530F). The main elements analyzed are Pr, Nd, Ga, Zr, O, and the elements at the grain boundary and the intergranular triangular region were quantitatively analyzed.

[0135] FIG. 1 shows the distribution diagram of each element in the neodymium-iron-boron magnet material. From FIG. 1, it can be seen that the Pr and Nd elements are mainly distributed in the main phase, some rare earths also appear in the grain boundary, and the element Ga is also distributed in the main phase and the crystal phase, the element Zr is distributed at the grain boundary.

[0136] FIG. 2 shows the element distribution at the grain boundary of the neodymium-iron-boron magnet material of Example 23, and the elements at the grain boundary were quantitatively analyzed by taking the point marked by 1 in FIG. 2, the results are shown in Table 4 below:

TABLE-US-00004 TABLE 4 Pr Nd Ga Zr O Fe (wt. %) (wt. %) (wt. %) (wt. %) (wt. %) (wt. %) 37.8 28.2 5.26 0.08 0.69 Bal

[0137] From the above data, it can be clearly seen that Pr and Nd exist in the form of rare earth rich phases and oxides in the grain boundaries, α-Pr and α-Nd, Pr.sub.2O.sub.3, Nd.sub.2O.sub.3 and NdO, respectively, and Ga occupies a certain content of about 5.26 wt. % at the grain boundaries in addition to the main phase, Zr is dispersed in the whole region as a high melting point element.

[0138] FIG. 3 shows the element distribution of the intergranular triangular region of the neodymium-iron-boron magnet materials of Example 23, and the elements in the intergranular triangular region were quantitatively analyzed by taking the point marked by 1 in FIG. 3, and the results are shown in Table 5 below:

TABLE-US-00005 TABLE 5 Pr Nd Ga Zr O Fe (wt. %) (wt. %) (wt. %) (wt. %) (wt. %) (wt. %) 27.8 29.5 4.95 0.039 0.95 Bal

[0139] In the intergranular triangular region, Pr and Nd elements are distributed in it, in the formulations with high Pr, it is clearly found that the content of Pr is obviously lower than that of Nd in the intergranular triangular region, although some rare earths are enriched here, the enrichment degree of Pr is less than that of Nd, which is one of the reasons why high Pr and Ga work together to improve the coercivity. At the same time, there is a partial distribution of O and Ga therein.
