摘要
The corrosion resistance and microstructure of anisotropic Nd-Fe-B magnet prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique were studied. The SPS Nd-Fe-B has displayed more positive corrosion potential E-corr and lower corrosion current density I-corr, than those of the conventional sintered Nd-Fe-B with the same composition in several electrolytes, indicating better anti-corrosion properties. It also shows good stability in an oxidized atmosphere. The microstructure of SPS Nd-Fe-B magnet indicates that the grain size of Nd2Fe14B is fine (about 6 mum) and uniform, and the Nd-rich phase does not form along the grain boundaries of Nd2Fe14B, but agglomerates into the triple junctions. Therefore, the pathways for corrosion propagation are restricted and the inter-granular corrosion process through Nd-rich phase in the magnet is suppressed effectively. As a result, the SPS Nd-Fe-B magnet possesses excellent corrosion resistance. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
