Demagnetization Process and Coercivity for Anisotropic HDDR NdFeB Bonded Magnets

TF5; The demagnetization process and the coercivity mechanism for anisotropic HDDR Nd(Fe,Co)B bonded magnets were studied by comparing the dependence of coercivity on the alignment field applied while the powders were pressed. The results showed that both the remanence and the coercivity of magnet increased with increasing alignment field. The demagnetization process of the magnet can be classified as the nucleation process inside the grains and the domain-wall motion between the grains. The combined effect of two processes determines the coercivity of HDDR NdFeB bonded magnets.
