摘要

The grain boundary diffusion (GBD) technology was used to prepare high performance Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets by NdH3 and TbH3 nanoparticle diffusion.The factors affecting the coercivity of GBD magnets include distribution of rare earth rich grain boundary phase and substitution of the heavy rare earth.In order to distinguish the influence of various factors on the coercivity,the microstructure and magnetic domain evolution of the original,reference,Nd-diffused,and Tb-diffused magnets were analyzed.The core-shell structure formed by heavy rare earth substitution is the main factor of coercivity enhance-ment,and it can transform the magnetic domain reversal mode from easy-nucleation (EN) to difficult-nucleation (DN).With increasing the diffusion depth,the shell of the core-shell structure gradually becomes thinner,DN grains gradually decrease while the EN grains gradually increase,indicating that the magnetic domain reversal mode is directly related to the core-shell structure.
