  • In order to improve dendritic formation of Nd$_2$Fe$\_$14/B phase in the strip-cast Nd-Fe-B alloys that are frequently used for production of high energy sintered magnets, effect of small substitutional additives such as Cu (0.3~1.0 at. %) and Co (0.5~1.5 at.%) on the phase formation and microstructures of the strip-cast alloys based on Nd$\_$14/Fe$\_$80/B$\_$6/ were investigated. As the amount of Cu addition increased, formation of Nd$_2$Fe$\_$14/B dendrites along the direction normal to the strip surface was suppressed with the reduction of the strip thickness mainly due to the increase of fluidity of the melt. However, both the dendrites and their <001> preferred orientation along the direction normal to the strip surface were improved with the increase of the strip thickness as the amount of Co addition increased. The dendrites became finer after small amount of Cu or Co was added. While small copper additions tended to stabilize the formation of primary Fe, small cobalt additions suppressed it. When small amount of Zr was added, however, the dendrite structures were totally collapsed with excessive grain growth of Nd$_2$Fe$\_$14/B.

  • A new binder system and debinding process for low carbon residue in the injection molding of Nd(Fe, Co)B powder are investigated. In the injection molding of magnetic materials, it is demanded to reduce carbon residue which deteriorates their magnetic properties. The binder system developed is composed of polyethylene glycols (PEGs) and polypropylene (PP). PEG was selected as a major binder is component to be extracted in a molecular state by solvent extraction in ethanol, which step would leave no residue. PP was selected as a minor binder component to be subsequently removed by thermolysis which step would leave carbon residue. The behaviors of solvent extraction with the variations of PEG molecular weight, temperature, and time were examined. The dependency of residual carbon content on thermolysis atmosphere was also studied. Opened pore channels introduced in a green body by the solvent extraction and microstructures of the sintered magnets were observed using SEM.

  • 1980년대 이후로 등장한 Nd-Fe-B 소결자석은 뛰어난 자성특성을 나타내며, 원재료도 풍부하기 때문에 단위 자기 에너지당 가격은 비교적 저가이다. 따라서 대부분의 기존 Sm-Co와 주조 Al-Ni-Co 자석재료를 대체하며 다양한 첨단사업의 핵심소재로 적용되며, 자동차 및 의료기기 등 산업 전반에 사용되고 있다. 이러한 응용 중에서도 향후 녹색성장을 위한 신성장동력 산업인 하이브리드 자동차의 구동 모터로서 사용되는 대표적인 영구자석이다. 현재 개발된 Nd계 영구자석은 큐리온도가 낮고 높은 온도에서 자기적 성능의 열화가 심하게 진행된다는 단점이 있기 새로운 합금 설계 및 공정의 최적화를 통해 보자력을 향상 시킴으로써 사용온도를 $200^{\circ}C$ 정도로 높이는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 일반적인 제조공정을 통해 제조된 소결체의 미세구조에 변화시키기 위하여 약 $10^{-5}$ Torr의 진공분위기에서 $10^{\circ}C/min$의 승온/냉각속도로 $350^{\circ}C$부터 $450^{\circ}C$ 구간에서 2 사이클부터 8 사이클까지 승온과 냉각을 반복하는 열처리를 수행하였다. Nd-Fe-B 소결자석을 $350^{\circ}C{\sim}450^{\circ}C$ 온도구간에서 반복적인 열처리를 수행한 결과 열처리 사이클에 따라 보자력 특성이 다르게 나타내었다. 이에 승온과 냉각을 반복하며 나타난 미세구조의 변화가 자성특성에 어떠한 영향을 미쳤는지에 대해 고찰하였다.
