Abstract

SmCo4B-based alloys with high magnetocrystalline anisotropy are expected to be used as raw materials or constituent phases for new permanent magnets. In this work, we develop Sm(Co, Fe, Ni)4B alloys with excellent hard magnetic properties by tuning the contents of Fe, Co, and Ni. The addition of Fe enhances the amorphous formation ability of the as-spun ribbons, whereas Ni addition improves the structural stability of the crystalline phases. During annealing, the amorphous phase crystallizes into different Sm-Co-B phases in stages. A high coercivity of 5.68–6.71 MA·m−1 is obtained in the annealed SmCo4–x–yFexNiyB (x = 1.0–2.0, y = 0.8–1.0) ribbons composed of platelet-shaped and equiaxed grains in comparison with the coercivity of 2.89–5.18 MA·m−1 in the x = 1.0–1.2 and y = 0–0.8 ribbons with equiaxed grains. Here, we show the strong correlations between the microstructure and magnetic properties and provide insights for the future development of high-performance SmCo4B-based magnets.
