Abstract
The influence of casting cooling rate during the preparation of ingots on the grain size distribution and the magnetizing ability of $\textrm{Nd}_{16}\textrm{Fe}_{72}\textrm{V}_{4}\textrm{B}_{8}$ sintered magnets were investigated. Sintered magnets prepared from copper mold which allow a higher cooling rate, show a smaller grain size distribution and god magnetizing ability. The effects of adding bride forming elements, such as Cr, Mn, Nb, and W on the magnetic properties of Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets were also investigated. Both Cr and W addition increase coercivity and the resultant $\textrm{Nd}_{16}\textrm{Fe}_{72}\textrm{Cr}_{4}\textrm{B}_{9}$ alloy exhibits a similar magnetizing ability in comparison with $\textrm{Nd}_{16}\textrm{Fe}_{72}\textrm{V}_{4}\textrm{B}_{8}$ alloy.
합금의 주조시 냉각속도가 $\textrm{Nd}_{16}\textrm{Fe}_{72}\textrm{V}_{4}\textrm{B}_{8}$ 소결자석의 결정립 분포와 착자특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 조사하였다. 냉각속도가 높은 Cu mold를 사용하여 제작한 시료는 좁은 결정립 분포와 착자특성의 향상을 보였다. B화합물을 생성하는 Cr, Mn, Nb 그리고 w과 같은 첨가원소가 Nd-Fe-B계 소결자석의 착자특성에 미치는 영향에 대해서도 조사하였다. Cr이나 W첨가는 보자력의 향상에 효과적이고 $\textrm{Nd}_{16}\textrm{Fe}_{72}\textrm{Cr}_{4}\textrm{B}_{9}$합금은 $\textrm{Nd}_{16}\textrm{Fe}_{72}\textrm{V}_{4}\textrm{B}_{8}$합금과 비슷한 착자특성을 보였다.
