Can make by for example following method according to oxidation-resistant rare earth based magnet powder of the present invention: rare earth based magnet powder is mixed with the Treatment Solution that comprises pigment, then the rare earth based magnet powder that is attached with the Treatment Solution that contains pigment on its surface is carried out drying.
Comprise the method for the Treatment Solution of pigment as preparation, can mention and for example comprising, use ammoniacal liquor etc. the pH of this alkalescent water to be controlled at 6.5 to 9.0 scope the method for pigment dispersing in the alkalescent water.The pH value of Treatment Solution is controlled at the corrosion of 6.5 to 9.0 scopes with the rare earth based magnet powder avoiding this Treatment Solution and cause.Consider to guarantee good operating characteristics, the viscosity of this Treatment Solution is preferably in the scope of 2cP to 50cP.In addition, this Treatment Solution that contains pigment can be to comprise to be dispersed in for example ethanol, the Treatment Solution of the pigment in the organic solvents such as isopropyl alcohol.
As pigment, can use two types pigment, i.e. organic pigment and inorganic pigment.As organic pigment, except that indanthrene base pigment or phthalocyanine base pigment, can mention azo group, the quinacridine ketone group, anthraquinonyl , dioxazine base, indigo base, the thioindigo base, purple cyclic ketones (perinone) Ji , perylene base, isoindoline base, azomethine (azomethine) azo group and diketopyrrolopyrrolecocrystals base etc.In using the situation of organic pigment as pigment, having adhesion layer and this adhesion layer on its surface comprises organic pigment and can provide suitable viscoplasticity and excellent flowability to the compound of the rare earth based bonded magnet that comprises resinoid bond as the rare earth based magnet powder of main component, simultaneously, the organic pigment that constitutes adhesion layer can absorb and the relaxation pressure shaping period between put on the pressure of compound; Therefore, consider that preventing that magnet powder from breaking produces new break surface, this situation is preferred.In addition, the organic pigment of some types can give bonded permanent magnet high resistivity.Especially, because indanthrene base pigment and phthalocyanine base pigment have excellent corrosion resistance and thermal endurance, they can be called preferred organic pigment.
As inorganic pigment, can mention carbon black, titanium dioxide, iron oxide, chromium oxide, zinc oxide, aluminium oxide, zinc sulphide, talcum, mica, calcium carbonate etc.In using the situation of inorganic pigment as pigment.Have adhesion layer and this adhesion layer on its surface and comprise inorganic pigment and preferably can provide special excellent antioxidation, because this adhesion layer has excellent impermeability to oxygen and aqueous vapor to magnet powder as the rare earth based magnet powder of main component.Carbon black can be called preferred inorganic pigment.
Consider and guarantee pigment uniform dispersiveness in comprising the Treatment Solution of this pigment, the average particulate diameter of this pigment (main shaft diameter) is preferably in the scope of 0.01 μ m to 0.5 μ m.If average particulate diameter is less than 0.01 μ m, the production of this pigment difficulty that becomes not only, thus and be easy in Treatment Solution, take place the infringement operating characteristics of reuniting.If average particulate diameter surpasses 0.5 μ m, the excessive precipitation that causes thereby the proportion in the Treatment Solution will become.
The scope of pigment content is preferably 5wt% to 33wt% in the Treatment Solution.If its content is lower than 5wt%, can not form the adhesion layer that comprises enough high quantity pigment on the surface of rare earth based magnet powder, therefore, probably this can cause and can not provide excellent non-oxidizability for magnet powder.If its content surpasses 33wt%, this pigment may take place to reunite in Treatment Solution or precipitation produces bad dispersiveness thus.Therefore, the scope of pigment content 10wt% to 30wt% more preferably in the Treatment Solution.
Preferably in comprising the Treatment Solution of pigment, add organic dispersion medium.The purpose of using this organic dispersion medium is to suppress the reunion or the precipitation of the pigment in the Treatment Solution.Consider and realize above-mentioned target, and consider affinity and cost with pigment, the preferred organic dispersion medium that uses is an anion decentralized medium (aliphat polybasic carboxylic acid for example, the salt of polyether polyester carboxylic acid, the salt of macromolecule polyester acid polyamine, salt of macromolecular multi-component carboxylic acid long-chain amine or the like), nonionic decentralized medium (carboxylate for example, sulfonate, or the ammonium salt of polyoxyethylene alkyl ether or Isosorbide Dinitrate or the like), fractionated polymer dispersion media (carboxylate for example, sulfonate, or the ammonium salt of soluble epoxide thing; The styrene-propene acid copolymer, glue or the like).
The scope of the addition of organic dispersion medium 9wt% to 24wt% preferably in the Treatment Solution.If this addition is lower than 9wt%, may reduce dispersing of pigments.On the other hand, if addition surpasses 24wt%,, the viscosity of Treatment Solution can damage operating characteristics thereby may becoming too high.
Can make oxidation-resistant rare earth based magnet powder by the following method, for example, the rare earth based magnet powder immersion is prepared and comprises in the Treatment Solution of pigment with aforementioned manner, mix and stirring, then the rare earth based magnet powder that is attached with the Treatment Solution that contains pigment on its surface is leached dry products therefrom.Be used for rare earth based magnet powder immerse the Treatment Solution comprise pigment mix subsequently and stir be generally 1 to 20 minute total time, but this time is depended on the amount of rare earth based magnet powder.On with its surface, be attached with in the situation that the rare earth based magnet powder of the Treatment Solution that contains pigment leaches,, pigment more closely be adsorbed onto on the surface of magnet powder by using filtration under diminished pressure or pressure filtration.Can not cause the deterioration of magnetic property in order to provide non-oxidizability to rare earth based magnet powder, preferably by air dry or at inert atmosphere (nitrogen for example, argon gas or the like) carries out drying in, perhaps by under 80 ℃ to 120 ℃, carrying out heat drying in a vacuum.In the situation of using heat drying,, be generally 20 minutes to 2 hours drying time though depend on the amount of rare earth based magnet powder drying time.Present lumps if be attached with the rare earth based magnet powder that contains the pigment Treatment Solution on the surface that so leaches, carry out drying after preferably this agglomerate being pulverized.In addition, can be sprayed onto by the Treatment Solution that will contain pigment and obtain being attached with on the surface rare earth based magnet powder that contains the pigment Treatment Solution on the rare earth based magnet powder.
Obtain in the above described manner on the rare earth based magnet powder surface, form comprise pigment and can provide excellent non-oxidizability to magnet powder as the adhesion layer of main component, yet the formation of this adhesion layer is not the chemical reaction that participates in by this magnet powder composition wherein, but the suction-operated of the molecular separating force by nano-scale micro pigment particle on the magnet powder surface.Therefore, thus for example not existing the character of this magnet powder near surface to change in its forming process makes the problem of magnetic property variation.Therefore, by using according to oxidation-resistant rare earth based magnet powder of the present invention, can produce the rare earth based bonded magnet that not only has excellent non-oxidizability but also have fine magnetic property.
In addition, use rare earth based bonded magnet to have excellent non-oxidizability, not only because this magnet powder has excellent non-oxidizability according to oxidation-resistant rare earth based magnet powder manufacturing of the present invention.Usually, in the moulding of bonded permanent magnet, because the inadequate flowability of magnet powder, the briquetting pressure that adds between the shaping period of bonded permanent magnet can cause breaking of magnet powder; Therefore, thus existing magnet powder for example to break produces the situation of easily oxidized particle break surface.Yet, in the situation of using oxidation-resistant rare earth based magnet powder of the present invention, it is believed that thereby the granules of pigments that constitutes the lip-deep adhesion layer of magnet powder can show the flowability that lubrication can be improved magnet powder between the bonded permanent magnet shaping period, and suppressed to add the generation on the easy oxidation scission surface of the particle that briquetting pressure causes magnet powder to break causing.
In addition; moulding for rare earth based bonded magnet; the working pressure forming method or comprise pressure forming and the forming method of the combination of roll-in (for example; referring to " F.Yamashita; Applications Of Rare-Earth Magnets to the Small motor industry; pp. 100-111; Proceedings of the seventeenth internationalworkshop; Rare Earth Magnets and Their Applications; August18-22; 2002, Newark, Delaware; USA; Edited by G.C.Hadjipanayisand M.J.Bonder, Rinton Press ") or the like in the situation, can produce many holes usually on the surface of the bonded permanent magnet of making.Yet in the situation of the rare earth based bonded magnet that uses oxidation-resistant rare earth based magnet powder of the present invention to make, the granules of pigments that constitutes the lip-deep adhesion layer of this magnet powder can show the effect of the sealing of portalling.It is believed that in addition and use oxidation-resistant rare earth based magnet powder of the present invention to help to realize having the rare earth based bonded magnet of superior oxidation resistance energy.
Because the present invention can not make the character (quarity) of magnet powder near surface change, even for rare earth based magnet powder with less average particulate diameter (main shaft diameter) (for example 200 μ m or littler), for example average particulate diameter is magnetic anisotropy HDDR (hydrogenation-disproportionation--desorption-reorganization) magnet powder (referring to JP-B-6-82575) of about 80 μ m to 100 μ m, this powder is so that absorption hydrogen by the rare-earth based magnetic alloy of heating in hydrogen, carrying out the desorption of hydrogen subsequently handles, cooling is then made, and can excellent non-oxidizability is provided and can not cause the deterioration of magnetic property to it.In addition, can pass through the method known in the art, for example pickling, degreasing, washing etc. is carried out preliminary treatment to rare earth based magnet powder.
In addition, according to oxidation-resistant rare earth based magnet powder of the present invention can be the magnet powder with adhesion layer, this adhesion layer comprises pigment as main component, this pigment is attached to outmost surface, and is formed with the insert layer of one or more coating films on the surface of this rare earth based magnet powder.Can be by for example such oxidation-resistant rare earth based magnet powder of following method manufacturing, the rare earth based magnet powder that has one or more coating retes on its surface is mixed with the Treatment Solution that comprises pigment, then the rare earth based magnet powder that is attached with the Treatment Solution that contains pigment on the outmost surface is carried out drying.As the rare earth based magnet powder that is formed with one or more coating retes on its surface, can mention, for example have coating film that the inorganic phosphate compound makes and go up the rare earth based magnet powder of the anti-oxidant coating film that forms, as described in JP-A-64-11304 and JP-A-7-278602 as its surface.Yet, the coating film that forms on the rare earth based magnet powder surface is not limited to the coating film made by the inorganic phosphate compound, and can be any anti-oxidant coating film known in the art, coating film that for example is made of metal such as aluminium coating film and zinc coating film; Or for example the resin-coating film of polyimides coating film or the multilayer film that constitutes by a plurality of coating films.Therefore, even form the inadequate coating film of non-oxidizability as bottom on the rare earth based magnet powder surface, what form on the rare earth based magnet powder outmost surface is that the adhesion layer of main component can effectively compensate or strengthen non-oxidizability with pigment.
Can be by the method for knowing in this area, by the compound that mixes with resinoid bond according to oxidation-resistant rare earth based magnet powder manufacturing rare earth based bonded magnet of the present invention.As resinoid bond, available have for example epoxy resin of thermosetting resin, phenolic resins, a melamine resin etc.; Thermoplastic resin is polyamide (nylon 66, nylon 6, nylon 12 etc.) for example, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyester, polyphenylene sulfide etc.; Rubber and estramer; Their modified product, copolymer, and mixture (for example comprises the goods that are dispersed in the thermoplastic resin powder in the thermosetting resin (epoxy resin etc.): referring to " F.Yamashita; Applications Of Rare-Earth Magnets to the Small motor industry; pp.100-111; Proceedings of the seventeenth internationalworkshop; Rare Earth Magnets and Their Applications; August18-22,2002, Newark, Delaware, USA, Edited by G.C.Hadjipanayisand M.J.Bonder, Rinton Press ").With respect to oxidation-resistant rare earth based magnet powder, the combined amount of this resinoid bond in this compound is preferably 3wt% or still less.In obtaining this compound, can add for example coupling agent, lubricant, additives such as curing agent with normally used amount in this field.
Use is according to the preparation of the compound of the rare earth based bonded magnet of oxidation-resistant rare earth based magnet powder of the present invention, be by being shaped to predetermined shape with the compound that is used for rare earth based bonded magnet that aforementioned manner is made, moulding is by pressure forming, injection mo(u)lding, extrusion molding etc.For example, in the situation of working pressure forming method, the pressure forming method of in this area, using always, the forming method that comprises the combination that comprises pressure forming and roll-in (for example, referring to above-mentioned " F.Yamashita; Applications Of Rare-Earth Magnetsto the Small motor industry, pp.100-111, Proceedings of theseventeenth international workshop; Rare Earth Magnets andTheir Applications; August 18-22,2002, Newark; Delaware; USA, Edited by G.C.Hadjipanayis and M.J.Bonder, Rinton Press ").
Carry out pressure forming by compound, the gap is filled thereby the pigment that constitutes the adhesion layer that forms on the magnet powder outmost surface can be clamp-oned in the gap between the magnet powder particle to rare earth based bonded magnet.In this method, can reduce the generation of the hole of bonded permanent magnet surface and inside.Preferably with 0.1GPa to 1GPa, and more preferably carry out the pressure forming of this compound with the pressure of 0.3GPa to 0.6GPa scope.If pressure is lower than 0.1GPa, then hypotony can not obtain the densification of sufficiently high bonded permanent magnet, and this can not effectively reduce the generation of hole.On the other hand, if pressure surpasses 1GPa, it is too high that pressure becomes, and probably can cause breaking so that producing new break surface of magnet powder.Forming temperature usually in room temperature (20 ℃) in 120 ℃ scope, but it depends on the type of resinoid bond.For by reducing between the magnet powder particle or the friction of magnet powder particle and resinoid bond obtains highdensity bonded permanent magnet, perhaps for by improving mobile level and smooth filling of moving the gap between the magnet powder particle that promotes to have the pigment that constitutes the adhesion layer on the magnet powder outmost surface, preferably forming temperature is set in 80 ℃ to 100 ℃ the scope to guarantee pigment.
In using the situation of thermosetting resin, at last the formed body that so obtains is heated and harden so that obtain rare earth based bonded magnet as binding agent.Carry out this heating and sclerosis according to conventional method, for example heating 1 to 5 hour in inert atmosphere (for example nitrogen, argon gas etc.) or vacuum under 140 ℃ to 200 ℃ temperature.
In addition, for further corrosion resistance etc. is provided, can form polytype coating film on rare earth based bonded magnet manufactured according to the present invention, for example the individual layer of cold coating coating film or lamination are electroplated coating film or the like.
