Abstract

The effect of small aluminum additions on the temperature dependence of remanence and intrinsic coercivity in Co- and Dy-containing Nd-Fe-B was studied. Sintered magnets were prepared and demagnetization curves measured at temperatures between −50 to +200°C. Curie temperatures and irreversible flux losses in open circuit were determined. Al increases the coercivity while decreasing remanence, energy product and Curie temperature. Other unfavorable side effects are the increase in temperature coefficients of Br and, especially, MHc. Substitution of Al is not beneficial for magnets used at elevated temperature.
