Description

釹鐵硼磁體及其製造方法 Neodymium iron boron magnet and manufacturing method thereof

本發明係關於一種釹鐵硼磁體及其製造方法,特別是關於一種具有細小晶粒尺寸的釹鐵硼磁體及其製造方法。 The present invention relates to a neodymium iron boron magnet and a method of manufacturing the same, and more particularly to a neodymium iron boron magnet having a fine grain size and a method of manufacturing the same.

早期合金原料是採用冷卻速率較低的鑄錠塊材(Ingot),合金中含有大量的α-Fe相,致使磁石產品特性不佳。雖然目前商用製程已改用冷卻速率稍快之甩片合金(Strip casting)以降低α-Fe相含量,但甩片合金之釹鐵硼主相或富稀土相之晶粒形狀為長條晶,晶粒尺寸之短軸約為0.1~50微米(μm)、長軸約0.1~100微米,侷限了甩片合金於後續氫破碎及氣流粉碎(Jet Mill)製程中的粉碎效果,其粉碎後粉體平均粒徑約1.5~5微米,致使燒結磁體之平均晶粒尺寸仍有5~15微米,晶粒略顯粗大導致磁石之本質矯頑磁力(iHc)、磁性值和耐溫性均不佳。 Early alloy materials used ingots with lower cooling rates (Ingot), which contained a large amount of α- Fe phase, resulting in poor magnetite properties. Although the commercial process has been changed to a slightly faster cooling strip alloy to reduce the α-Fe phase content, the grain shape of the NdFeB main phase or the rare earth-rich phase of the bismuth alloy is long-stranded. The short axis of the grain size is about 0.1 to 50 micrometers (μm) and the long axis is about 0.1 to 100 micrometers, which limits the pulverization effect of the bismuth alloy in the subsequent hydrogen crushing and Jet Mill process. The average particle size of the body is about 1.5~5 microns, so that the average grain size of the sintered magnet is still 5~15 microns. The grain size is slightly coarse, resulting in the intrinsic coercive force ( i H c ), magnetic value and temperature resistance of the magnet. .

例如,在美國專利公告第5,383,978號和中國專利公開第102031445A號中,均公開了針對燒結釹鐵硼磁石的製程,其係將熔融之釹鐵硼合金湯液澆鑄在高速旋轉的銅輪上,銅輪轉速約為2~4公尺/秒(m/s),可製備出甩片合金。該甩片合金的冷卻速度約為103℃/秒,厚度約0.1~0.4毫米,合金中釹鐵硼主相或富稀土相之晶粒形狀為長條晶,晶粒尺 寸之短軸約0.1~50微米、長軸約0.1~300微米。該甩片合金經過氫粉碎和氣流粉碎之後,粉體的平均粒徑約為1.5~5微米,燒結後製得的燒結磁體之平均晶粒尺寸可控制在5~10微米左右。如上所述,在此晶粒範圍的燒結磁體,晶粒略顯粗大導致磁石磁性值有待改進。 For example, in the U.S. Patent No. 5,383,978 and the Chinese Patent Publication No. 102031445A, the process for sintering a neodymium-iron-boron magnet is disclosed in which a molten NdFeB alloy solution is cast on a high-speed rotating copper wheel. The copper wheel rotates at a speed of about 2 to 4 meters per second (m/s) to produce a bismuth alloy. The bismuth alloy has a cooling rate of about 10 3 ° C / sec and a thickness of about 0.1 to 0.4 mm. The grain shape of the NdFeB main phase or the rare earth-rich phase in the alloy is long-chain crystal, and the short axis of the grain size is about 0.1. ~50 microns, long axis about 0.1~300 microns. After the hydrogen pulverization and airflow pulverization of the bismuth alloy, the average particle diameter of the powder is about 1.5 to 5 μm, and the average grain size of the sintered magnet obtained after sintering can be controlled to about 5 to 10 μm. As described above, in the sintered magnet of this grain range, the crystal grains are slightly coarse, resulting in a magnetic value of the magnet to be improved.

故,有必要提供一種釹鐵硼磁體及其製造方法,可製得較小晶粒尺寸的釹鐵硼磁體,具有優良的磁性值,以解決習用技術所存在的問題。 Therefore, it is necessary to provide a neodymium iron boron magnet and a manufacturing method thereof, and a NdFeB magnet having a small grain size can be obtained, which has an excellent magnetic value to solve the problems of the conventional technology.

本發明之主要目的在於提供一種釹鐵硼磁體及其製造方法,可製得具有快速冷卻速率的釹鐵硼合金薄帶。該釹鐵硼合金薄帶在熱處理後,可獲得晶粒尺寸較小的釹鐵硼合金粉體,且其釹鐵硼主相或富稀土相為等軸晶粒(並非長短軸)。由於晶粒尺寸較小,在後續製程進行燒結或熱處理時所需溫度可降低,且燒結後所形成的磁體的磁性值相當優良。相較於傳統製程所製造的磁體,可提高約3~5千奧司特(kOe)的本質矯頑磁力。 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A primary object of the present invention is to provide a neodymium iron boron magnet and a method of manufacturing the same, which can produce a neodymium iron boron alloy ribbon having a rapid cooling rate.

However, the manufacturing method is merely an example, and is not intended to limit the structure of the neodymium iron boron magnet and the manufacturing steps thereof.

首先,將重量約為2公斤之Nd26.5Dy4.5Fe65.6Co2Cu0.2Nb0.2B1合金鑄錠塊敲碎成適當體積後,置入石英管11中(請參考第1圖),並將石英管11置入一真空腔體(未繪示)內。石英管11之噴嘴111口徑為0.8毫米,噴嘴111至銅輪14表面之距離為6毫米。在真空腔體內之真空度達 到5×10-5托之後,通入氬氣使腔體壓力升高至560托。接著開啟高週波熔煉,使鑄錠塊成為熔融湯液後,從氣體通道12通入760托氬氣於石英管111中,使熔融湯液自石英管下方之噴嘴111迅速噴出於高速旋轉的銅輪面上。銅輪轉速設定為40公尺/秒,合金薄帶所具備之冷卻速度約105~106℃/秒,製得合金薄帶厚度約為0.01~0.03毫米。 First, a Nd 26.5 Dy 4.5 Fe 65.6 Co 2 Cu 0.2 Nb 0.2 B 1 alloy ingot having a weight of about 2 kg is broken into an appropriate volume and placed in a quartz tube 11 (please refer to FIG. 1), and The quartz tube 11 is placed in a vacuum chamber (not shown). The nozzle 111 of the quartz tube 11 has a diameter of 0.8 mm, and the distance from the nozzle 111 to the surface of the copper wheel 14 is 6 mm. After the vacuum in the vacuum chamber reached 5 × 10 -5 Torr, argon gas was introduced to raise the chamber pressure to 560 Torr. Then, the high-frequency smelting is started, and after the ingot is melted, the argon gas is introduced into the quartz tube 111 from the gas passage 12, and the molten soup is quickly sprayed from the nozzle 111 below the quartz tube to the high-speed rotating copper. On the wheel. The copper wheel speed is set to 40 meters / sec, the alloy ribbon has a cooling rate of about 105 ~ 106 ° C / sec, and the thickness of the alloy strip is about 0.01 ~ 0.03 mm.

接著,將製得的合金薄帶至於真空腔體內(真空度5×10-5托)進行熱處理,熱處理條件為700℃×30分鐘。合金薄帶熱處理後晶粒尺寸約0.1~3微米,呈現主要為釹鐵硼主相與富稀土相。將熱處理後之合金薄帶在氬氣保護下進行氫破碎製程。氫破碎之吸氫壓力為1.95公斤力/平方公分,維持2小時;脫氫溫度為550℃,持續1小時。接著再將氫破碎後的釹鐵硼合金粉體,在氮氣保護下進行氣流粉碎,氣流粉碎的壓力為0.5兆帕,分級輪轉速為5000轉/分鐘。經過氣流粉碎後之釹鐵硼合金粉體的平均粒徑尺寸可細化至1~2微米。 Next, the obtained alloy ribbon was subjected to heat treatment in a vacuum chamber (vacuum degree: 5 × 10 -5 Torr) under heat treatment conditions of 700 ° C × 30 minutes. After heat treatment, the alloy ribbon has a grain size of about 0.1~3 microns, which is mainly composed of NdFeB main phase and rare earth-rich phase. The heat-treated alloy ribbon is subjected to a hydrogen fragmentation process under argon gas protection. The hydrogen absorption pressure of hydrogen fragmentation was 1.95 kgf/cm 2 for 2 hours; the dehydrogenation temperature was 550 ° C for 1 hour. Then, the NdFeB alloy powder after the hydrogen was crushed was subjected to jet pulverization under a nitrogen atmosphere, and the pressure of the jet pulverization was 0.5 MPa, and the grading wheel rotation speed was 5000 rpm. The average particle size of the NdFeB alloy powder after jet milling can be refined to 1 to 2 microns.

接著,該釹鐵硼合金粉體經過磁場成形配向後,置入真空燒結爐中進行燒結及熱處理。所使用的燒結條件為950℃×3小時,真空度5×10-5托;熱處理條件為750℃×2小時,真空度5×10-5托。燒結後,獲得一釹鐵硼磁體,其具有平均晶粒尺寸約2.4微米,磁石之本質矯頑磁力相較於傳統製程提昇了3.6千奧司特,。本實施例中,該釹鐵硼磁體的磁性值請參考下表1。 Next, the NdFeB alloy powder is subjected to magnetic field forming and then placed in a vacuum sintering furnace for sintering and heat treatment. The sintering conditions used were 950 ° C × 3 hours, the degree of vacuum was 5 × 10 -5 Torr, the heat treatment conditions were 750 ° C × 2 hours, and the degree of vacuum was 5 × 10 -5 Torr. After sintering, a neodymium iron boron magnet having an average grain size of about 2.4 μm was obtained, and the intrinsic coercive force of the magnet was increased by 3.6 kOs compared to the conventional process. In this embodiment, the magnetic properties of the neodymium iron boron magnet are as shown in Table 1 below.

Br:殘留磁化量、iHc:本質矯頑磁力、(BH)max:磁能積 Br: residual magnetization, iHc: intrinsic coercive force, (BH) max : magnetic energy product

如表1所示,燒結前的粉體粒徑約為1.8微米,相較於傳統製程(比較例)中的粉體粒徑2.8微米已有明顯的細緻化。而燒結後所形成的該釹鐵硼磁體之晶粒尺寸約為2.9微米,遠小於比較例中的晶粒尺寸。此外,實施例中該釹鐵硼磁體所具有的磁石之本質矯頑磁力為27.1千奧司特,相較於比較例的23.5千奧司特,確實有大幅度的提昇。 As shown in Table 1, the powder particle size before sintering was about 1.8 μm, which was significantly finer than the powder particle size of 2.8 μm in the conventional process (Comparative Example). The grain size of the NdFeB magnet formed after sintering is about 2.9 μm, which is much smaller than the grain size in the comparative example. Further, in the embodiment, the magnetron of the neodymium iron boron magnet has an intrinsic coercive force of 27.1 kA, which is a substantial improvement compared to the 23.5 kOs of the comparative example.

相較於習知技術,依照本發明所提供之釹鐵硼磁體的製造方法中,利用具有快速冷卻速率的釹鐵硼合金薄帶,使該釹鐵硼合金薄帶在熱處理後,獲得粒徑較小的釹鐵硼合金粉體,且其釹鐵硼主相或富稀土相為等軸晶粒。由於粒徑較小,在後續製程進行燒結或熱處理時形成燒結磁體時,所需溫度可降低,且所形成的釹鐵硼磁體的晶粒尺寸遠小於傳統製程,且磁性值相當優良,本質矯頑磁力可以提昇3~5千奧司特。 Compared with the prior art, in the method for manufacturing a neodymium iron boron magnet according to the present invention, the NdFeB alloy ribbon having a rapid cooling rate is used to obtain the particle size of the NdFeB alloy ribbon after heat treatment. A smaller NdFeB alloy powder, and its NdFeB main phase or rare earth-rich phase is an equiaxed grain. Due to the small particle size, when a sintered magnet is formed during sintering or heat treatment in a subsequent process, the required temperature can be lowered, and the grain size of the formed NdFeB magnet is much smaller than that of the conventional process, and the magnetic value is quite excellent. The coercive force can be increased by 3~5 thousand Åtes.

雖然本發明已以較佳實施例揭露,然其並非用以限制本發明,任何熟習此項技藝之人士,在不脫離本發明之精神和範圍內,當可作各種更動與修飾,因此本發明之保護範圍當視後附之申請專利範圍所界定者為準。 The present invention has been disclosed in its preferred embodiments, and is not intended to limit the invention, and the present invention may be modified and modified without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
