Abstract
To provide an alloy for an R-T-B based permanent magnet from which an R-T-B based permanent magnet having improved magnetic properties can be manufactured. The alloy for an R-T-B based permanent magnet contains R, T, and B, in which R is a rare earth element, T is a transition metal element, and B is boron. An area ratio of a non-columnar crystal structure in a cross section is 1.0% or more and 30.0% or less.
Claims5
An alloy for an R-T-B based permanent magnet, comprising:
- R, T, and B, wherein
- R is at least one of rare earth elements, T is at least one of transition metal elements, B is boron, and an area ratio of a non-columnar crystal structure in a cross section of the alloy is 1.0% or more and 30.0% or less, and
- the non-columnar crystal structure contains a chill crystal structure, and an area ratio of a structure other than the chill crystal structure in the non-columnar crystal structure is 85% or more and 95% or less.
An alloy for an R-T-B based permanent magnet, comprising:
- R, T, and B, wherein
