Design and fabrication of sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets with a low temperature coefficient of intrinsic coercivity

To decrease the temperature coefficients of sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets, the influencing factors on temperature coefficients, especially the reversible temperature coefficient ? of intrinsic coercivity Hcj, were analyzed. The results showed that the absolute value of ? decreased with increasing Hcj and also the ratio of microstructure parameter c to Neff, indicating that the increase of magnetocrystalline anisotropy field HA and c/Neff can effectively decrease the absolute value of ?. On the basis of this analysis, a sintered Nd-Fe-B magnet with a low temperature coefficient of Hcj was fabricated through composition design, and the value of ? was only -0.385%/?C in the temperature interval of 20-150?C.
