Abstract

PURPOSE:To form a bond magnet whose magnetic force is high, whose maximum energy product is large and whose performance is not lowered with the passage of time by a method wherein the surface of a magnetic powder composed of an alloy containing a rare-earth metal and iron is treated with a treating agent which is composed mainly of an alkali silicate. CONSTITUTION:An alloy which can give a high magnetic force and contains a rare-earth element and iron is used as a raw material for a magnetic powder. An alloy expressed by a composition formula of RxTyBz is particularly suitable; in this formula, R represents at least one kind selected from neodymium, praseodymium and a rare-earth metal composed of a misch metal, T represents iron or an iron group element and B represents boron; x, y and z represent individual atomic percentages of R, T and B; a relationship among x, y and z is as follows: 8<=x<=30, 2<=z<=20 and y=10. Water glass (composed mainly of Na2O and SiO2), potassium silicate, lithium silicate or the like can be enumerated as an alkali silicate as a main component of a treating agent which is used to treat the surface of the magnetic powder.

However, recently, in order to obtain the above-mentioned compact and high-performance bonded magnets, magnetic materials with a very large maximum energy product (

Under these circumstances, efforts have recently been made to develop high-performance and inexpensive magnetic materials to replace samarium-cobalt magnetic materials. For example, JP-A-59-211549 discloses a neodymium-iron-boron based magnetic material.

Furthermore, since it is mainly composed of iron, it will rust if moisture is present. For example, when a bonded magnet is prepared by molding this magnetic material into powder and using a binder, the magnetic material is contained in the binder. Alternatively, moisture and oxygen mixed in during molding may oxidize the iron and cause rust. In other words, the composition of the magnetic material changes, and as a result, the magnetic force of the bonded magnet decreases significantly over time. It is also possible to treat the surface of this magnetic powder with phosphoric acid, chromic acid, etc. (known as rust preventive agents for iron). However, since iron reacts with phosphoric acid or chromic acid over a certain thickness from the surface of the powder, in other words, the composition of the magnetic powder changes, so a high-performance bonded magnet cannot be obtained.

(Function) According to the present invention, a surface-modified magnetic powder is obtained in which the surface of the magnetic powder is treated and modified with a treatment agent containing an alkali silicate as a main component. In this powder, unlike when the magnetic powder surface is treated with phosphoric acid or chromic acid, there is no major change in its composition. Therefore, the original properties of the magnetic material do not change (high magnetic force is maintained).If the iron contained in the magnetic powder comes into contact with moisture due to condensation during or after molding, ferrous hydroxide is formed. To,
The alkali silicate that makes up the film has the function of passivating it without dissolving it in water. Therefore, ferrous hydroxide is prevented from being further oxidized to become ferric hydroxide (which is the main body of rust and causes corrosion). In other words, the alkali silicate film prevents the magnetic powder from being oxidized by oxygen and moisture and causing rust. Furthermore, this film

It imparts various properties to magnetic powder, such as resistance to ultraviolet rays, radiation, abrasion, oil, and organic solvents. Such surface-modified magnetic powders do not require expensive inert gases, which are normally used to prevent oxidation during storage. When molding and processing bonded magnets using this powder, even if it comes into contact with air at high temperatures, ignition due to oxidation does not occur, and there is no danger in handling it. Furthermore, the material remaining in the sprue portion and runner portion during injection molding etc. does not deteriorate due to oxidation and can be reused. The resulting bonded magnet has excellent stability over time and has a long product life.
