Secondary particles for anisotropic magnetic powder and method of producing anisotropic magnetic powder

Abstract

Provided are a method of producing a titanium-containing rare earth-iron-nitrogen anisotropic magnetic powder having good magnetic properties, and secondary particles for a titanium-containing anisotropic magnetic powder. The method includes: obtaining a first precipitate containing R, iron, and titanium by mixing a first precipitating agent with a solution containing R, iron, and titanium, wherein R is at least one selected from Sc, Y, Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, and Lu; obtaining a second precipitate containing R and iron by mixing, in the presence of the first precipitate, a second precipitating agent with a solution containing R and iron; obtaining an oxide containing R, iron, and titanium by calcining the second precipitate; obtaining a partial oxide by heat treating the oxide in a reducing gas atmosphere; obtaining alloy particles by reducing the partial oxide; and obtaining an anisotropic magnetic powder by nitriding the alloy particles.
