Conclusions
-
1.
By producing permanent magnets from a very fine iron powder, it is possible to dispense with the use of expensive and scarce metals such as cobalt, nickel, and copper.
-
2.
Experiments have shown that a powder dried, with continual mixing, in thin layers exposed to a current of air ensures improved magnetic properties.
-
3.
The addition of binder to a wet, washed powder results in a more uniform binder distribution. The presence of a protective binder film on the surfaces of particles reduces the oxidation of the powder and improves the properties of permanent magnet specimens produced from it.
-
4.
Magnets of improved magnetic properties — higher induction, coercive force, and (BH)max value — can be produced from a powder subjected to hydrogen reduction.
-
5.
It is shown that pressing in a magnetic field perpendicular to the direction of the pressing force has the most marked beneficial effect upon the properties of the resultant permanent magnets. The presence of such a field evidently enables the required texture to be preserved during the pressing operation.
