Hot-deformed magnet, method for producing raw material powder for hot-deformed magnet, and method for producing hot-deformed magnet

Abstract

A hot-deformed magnet is obtained by quenching and solidifying a melt of an alloy containing a rare earth element (RE), Fe, and B as main components by a super quenching method using a rotating roll; preparing an alloy powder in an amorphous structure state or an amorphous-microcrystalline mixed structure state; subjecting the alloy powder to a rapid heat treatment in a falling-type heating furnace so as to obtain a raw material powder; hot-forming the raw material powder so as to densify the raw material powder to near true density and form a hot-formed compact; and subjecting the hot-formed compact to uniaxial hot plastic working to orient crystals.
