Abstract

Permanent magnet materials of the Fe-B-R type are produced by: PA1 preparing a metallic powder having a mean particle size of 0.3-80 microns and a composition of 8-30 at % R, 2-28 at % B, and the balance Fe, PA1 compacting, and PA1 sintering, at a temperature of 900-1200 degrees C. Co up to 50 at % may be present. Additional elements M (Ti, Ni, Bi, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W, Mn, Al, Sb, Ge, Sn, Zr, Hf) may be present. The process is applicable for anisotropic and isotropic magnet materials.
