PERMANENT MAGNET POWDER MANUFACTURED BY REDUCTION-DIFFUSION METHOD, CLEANING DEVICE AND CLEANING METHOD FOR CLEANING THE SAME

Provided is a cleaning device for cleaning a magnet powder including: a flask provided to contain the magnet powder and a cleaning material used to clean the magnet powder; and a vacuum manifold provided to maintain the magnet powder and the cleaning material contained in the flask in an inert state during cleaning.Provided is a method for cleaning a magnet powder including a loading operation for loading a magnet powder, a cleaning solution, and zeolite into a flask; a gas injecting operation for injecting an inert gas into the flask; and a vacuum drying operation for drying the magnet powder and the zeolite in a vacuum.Provided is a method for manufacturing a magnet powder including: preparing a primary mixture by mixing neodymium (III) nitrate, boric acid, and iron (III) nitrate nonahydrate; preparing an oxide by heat-treating the primary mixture; removing a residual organic material of the oxide by heat-treating the oxide; preparing a hydrogen-reduced oxide by reacting the oxide, from which the residual organic material is removed, with hydrogen by heat treatment; preparing a secondary mixture by mixing the hydrogen-reduced oxide with calcium; obtaining a product by subjecting the secondary mixture to reduction-diffusion reaction by heat treatment; and obtaining Nd2Fe14B powder by pulverizing the product.
