- the invention of the embodiments relates to a permanent magnet, a motor, and a generator.
- high-performance rare earth magnets Sm—Co magnets, Nd—Fe—B magnets, and the like are known.
- Fe and Co contribute to an increase in saturation magnetization.
- these magnets contain rare earth elements such as Nd and Sm, and bring about a large magnetic anisotropy due to the behavior of 4f electrons of the rare earth elements in the crystal field. Thereby, a large coercive force is obtained and a high-performance magnet is realized.
- Such high performance magnets are mainly used in electric devices such as motors, speakers, and measuring instruments.
- demands for reducing the size and weight of various electrical devices and reducing power consumption have increased, and in order to meet these demands, there has been a demand for higher performance permanent magnets that improve the maximum magnetic energy product (BHmax) of permanent magnets.

- Sm—Co magnets have a high Curie temperature, it is possible to achieve good motor characteristics at high temperatures. However, further enhancement of coercivity and magnetization, and improvement in squareness ratio are desired. It is considered that increasing the concentration of Fe is effective for increasing the magnetization of the Sm—Co-based magnet, but in the conventional manufacturing method, the squareness ratio tends to decrease by increasing the concentration of Fe. For this reason, in order to realize a magnet for a high-performance motor, a technique is required that enables the expression of a favorable squareness ratio while improving the magnetization at a high Fe concentration composition.

- the permanent magnet may have a plurality of Cu-rich phases having different phases.
- the domain wall energy of the Cu-rich phase is higher than the domain wall energy of the Th 2 Zn 17 type crystal phase, and this domain wall energy difference becomes a barrier for domain wall movement. That is, when the Cu rich phase functions as a pinning site, domain wall movement between a plurality of cell phases can be suppressed. In particular, the effect of suppressing the domain wall motion is enhanced by forming the cell structure. This is also called a domain wall pinning effect. Therefore, it is more preferable that the Cu rich phase is formed so as to surround the cell phase.

- AP pick-up atom probe
- Measurement by 3DAP is performed on the inside of the sintered body.
- the measurement inside the sintered body is as follows. First, in the central part of the longest side in the surface having the maximum area, the composition is measured at the surface part and inside of the cross section cut perpendicularly to the side (in the case of a curve, perpendicular to the tangent to the central part).

Do. If the heat treatment is not performed at a temperature lower by 10 ° C. or more than the heat treatment temperature at the time of sintering, the heterogeneous phase derived from the liquid phase generated during the sintering cannot be sufficiently removed. The orientation of this hetero phase is often low, and when the hetero phase is present, the crystal orientation of the crystal grains tends to shift with respect to the easy axis of magnetization, and not only the squareness ratio but also the magnetization tends to decrease.
- the temperature is low, and it is difficult to sufficiently remove the heterogeneous phase generated during the sintering from the viewpoint of element diffusion rate.

In order to prevent oxidation, it is preferable to perform the high-quality treatment in a vacuum or an inert atmosphere such as argon gas.
- the effect of suppressing the generation of a heterogeneous phase is enhanced by setting the pressure in the chamber in the high-quality treatment to a positive pressure.

- the cooling rate is less than 170 ° C./min, a Ce 2 Ni 7 type crystal phase (2-7 type crystal phase) is likely to be generated during cooling. Due to the presence of the 2-7 type crystal phase, the magnetization may decrease, and the coercive force may also decrease. This is because in the 2-7 type crystal phase, Cu is often concentrated, which decreases the Cu concentration in the main phase and makes phase separation difficult due to aging treatment.
- the cooling rate tends to be important in a composition containing an Fe concentration of 25 atomic% or more.
- the cooling at the time of performing the solution treatment after the high-quality treatment is more gradual than the rapid cooling after the solution treatment, that is, slow cooling.

Moreover, when it exceeds 2.0 degree-C / min, the difference of Cu concentration of a cell phase and a cell wall phase is not fully obtained, and a coercive force tends to fall.
- the cooling rate during slow cooling is, for example, 0.4 ° C./min or more and 1.5 ° C./min or less, more preferably 0.5 ° C./min or more and 1.3 ° C./min or less. Moreover, when it cools slowly to less than 350 degreeC, the low temperature heterogeneous phase as mentioned above is easy to be generated.
- the aging treatment it may be held at a predetermined temperature for a certain period of time during slow cooling, and further slow cooling from there. Further, the above aging treatment is set as the main aging treatment, and the preliminary aging treatment is performed by holding the aging treatment at a temperature lower than the holding temperature in the first holding before the main aging treatment and in a time shorter than the holding time in the first holding. May be performed. The squareness ratio can be further increased by the holding during the slow cooling and the pre-aging treatment.

- the heterogeneous phase can be sufficiently removed. Therefore, the form of the different phase and the size of the crystal grains are controlled, and the size and orientation of the crystal grains constituting the main phase can be controlled. Therefore, in the metal structure, a cell structure is easily formed even around the grain boundary phase. For example, a good squareness ratio and coercive force can be obtained even in a permanent magnet containing 25 atomic% or more of Fe.
