Abstract:With the aim at exploiting the magnetic properties of the rare earth permanent magnetic alloy of Nd8.5,Fe84Nb0.5,Zr0.5B6,Cu0.5,we prepared ribbons deliberately at different quenching rates and then particularlyinvestigated the effect of quenching rates and annealing technique for crystallization on the magnetic propertiesof the alloy. The result shows that rapid quenching rate has great effect on the magnetic properties of the alloy.The optimum magnetic properties of the alloy are obtained at the rapid quenching rate of 20 m/s. When thecrystallization temperature is too high or the time too long, the grain of crystallization phase becomes oversizedand the specific surface area of the grain is reduced. When the crystallization temperature is too low or thetime too short,the crystallization process is incomplete,which leads to the less precipitation of soft phase andhard phase and much residue of amorphous phase,and thus exchanging coupling between soft phase and hardphase is impeded,deteriorating the improvement of magnetic properties of the alloy. The alloy prepared at thequenching rate of 20 m/s and treated by adequate crystallization technique exhibits the optimum magneticproperties,which are remanent magnetism Br=0.72 T, coercive force He =380.98 kA/m and maximum mag-netic energy product (BH) max= 103.72 kJ/m3,respectively.
