Physical properties of NdFeB
Shopping tips
Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to their magnetic efficiency, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
- Their power is durable, and after around 10 years, it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
- They remain magnetized despite exposure to strong external fields,
- Because of the reflective layer of silver, the component looks visually appealing,
- The outer field strength of the magnet shows remarkable magnetic properties,
- With the right combination of materials, they reach increased thermal stability, enabling operation at or above 230°C (depending on the structure),
- With the option for fine forming and personalized design, these magnets can be produced in multiple shapes and sizes, greatly improving application potential,
- Wide application in modern technologies – they serve a purpose in hard drives, electromechanical systems, medical equipment along with other advanced devices,
- Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer impressive pulling strength in compact dimensions, which makes them useful in miniature devices
Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
- They are prone to breaking when subjected to a sudden impact. If the magnets are exposed to external force, they should be placed in a protective enclosure. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks and increases its overall resistance,
- High temperatures may significantly reduce the field efficiency of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent loss in performance (depending on form). To prevent this, we offer heat-resistant magnets marked [AH], capable of working up to 230°C, which makes them perfect for high-temperature use,
- Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is wise to use sealed magnets made of rubber for outdoor use,
- Limited ability to create complex details in the magnet – the use of a mechanical support is recommended,
- Health risk from tiny pieces may arise, if ingested accidentally, which is significant in the family environments. Furthermore, small elements from these devices have the potential to disrupt scanning once in the system,
- In cases of tight budgets, neodymium magnet cost is a challenge,
Maximum holding power of the magnet – what affects it?
The given strength of the magnet corresponds to the optimal strength, assessed under optimal conditions, specifically:
- using a steel plate with low carbon content, acting as a magnetic circuit closure
- of a thickness of at least 10 mm
- with a polished side
- with zero air gap
- in a perpendicular direction of force
- at room temperature
Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet
In practice, the holding capacity of a magnet is affected by the following aspects, from crucial to less important:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, as even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drop in lifting force of up to 50%.
- Direction of applied force, because the maximum lifting capacity is achieved under perpendicular application. The force required to slide the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower.
- Thickness of the plate, as a plate that is too thin causes part of the magnetic flux not to be used and to remain wasted in the air.
- Material of the plate, because higher carbon content lowers holding force, while higher iron content increases it. The best choice is steel with high magnetic permeability and high saturation induction.
- Surface of the plate, because the more smooth and polished it is, the better the contact and consequently the greater the magnetic saturation.
- Operating temperature, since all permanent magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. This means that at high temperatures they are weaker, while at sub-zero temperatures they become slightly stronger.
* Lifting capacity testing was conducted on plates with a smooth surface of optimal thickness, under a perpendicular pulling force, however under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Moreover, even a slight gap {between} the magnet and the plate decreases the holding force.
Exercise Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be brought close to GPS and smartphones.
Intense magnetic fields generated by neodymium magnets interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Neodymium magnets are primarily characterized by their significant internal force. They attract to each other, and any object that comes in their way will be affected.
Neodymium magnets jump and clash mutually within a radius of several to around 10 cm from each other.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
Neodymium magnets are the most powerful magnets ever invented. Their strength can shock you.
Familiarize yourself with our information to correctly handle these magnets and avoid significant swellings to your body and prevent damage to the magnets.
It is important to keep neodymium magnets away from youngest children.
Neodymium magnets are not toys. You cannot allow them to become toys for children. In the case of small magnets, they can be swallowed and cause choking. In such cases, the only solution is to undergo surgery to remove the magnets, and otherwise, it can even lead to death.
Neodymium magnets should not be near people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets generate very strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.
You should keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from the wallet, computer, and TV.
Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields that can damage magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, or other devices. They can also damage videos, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets away from these electronic devices.
The magnet coating contains nickel, so be cautious if you have a nickel allergy.
Studies show a small percentage of people have allergies to certain metals, including nickel. An allergic reaction often manifests as skin redness and rash. If you have a nickel allergy, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Magnets made of neodymium are particularly delicate, which leads to their breakage.
In the event of a collision between two neodymium magnets, it can result in them getting chipped. Despite being made of metal as well as coated with a shiny nickel plating, they are not as hard as steel. At the moment of connection between the magnets, tiny sharp metal pieces can be propelled in various directions at high speed. Eye protection is recommended.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Under specific conditions, Neodymium magnets may experience demagnetization when subjected to high temperatures.
Exercise caution!
