Manufacturing method of an anisotropic magnet powder, precursory anisotropic magnet powder and bonded magnet

摘要

This invention aims to provide a manufacturing method of an anisotropic magnet powder from which a bonded magnet with an improved loss of magnetization due to structural changes can be achieved. This is achieved by employing a low-temperature hydrogenation process, high-temperature hydrogenation process and the first evacuation process to an RFeB material (R: rare earth element) to manufacture a hydride powder (RFeBHx); the obtained RFeBHx powder (the precursory anisotropic magnet powder) is subsequently blended with a diffusion powder composed of hydride of dysprosium or the like and a diffusion heat-treatment process and a dehydrogenation process are employed. Through this series of processes, an anisotropic magnet powder with a great coercivity and a great degree of anisotropy can be achieved.
