Shopping tips
Moreover, even though neodymium is a component of the strongest magnets, they are prone to corrosion in humid environments. For this reason, they are coated with a thin layer of epoxy to increase their durability. It's worth noting that NdFeB neodymium magnets are about 13% lighter than SmCo magnets and, despite their power, easily break, which requires care during their handling. Therefore, any mechanical processing should be done before they are magnetized.
In terms of safety, there are many recommendations regarding the use of these magnets. They should not be used in acidic, basic, organic environments or in solvents, as well as in water or oil. Furthermore, they can distort data on magnetic cards and hard drives, although data deletion using a neodymium magnet is not always certain.
In terms of properties in different environments, neodymium magnets are sensitive to corrosion, especially in humid conditions. Therefore, they are often covered with thin coatings, such as gold, to preserve them from external factors and extend their lifespan. High temperatures exceeding 130°C can result in a loss of their magnetic strength, although there are particular types of neodymium magnets that can tolerate temperatures up to 230°C.
As for risks, it is important to avoid using neodymium magnets in acidic conditions, basic environments, organic or solvent environments, unless they are insulated. Additionally, their use is not recommended in water, oil, or in an environment containing hydrogen, as they may lose their magnetic properties.
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to their magnetic capacity, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
- Their strength is maintained, and after around ten years, it drops only by ~1% (theoretically),
- Their ability to resist magnetic interference from external fields is notable,
- Because of the reflective layer of gold, the component looks aesthetically refined,
- Magnetic induction on the surface of these magnets is very strong,
- These magnets tolerate high temperatures, often exceeding 230°C, when properly designed (in relation to profile),
- The ability for accurate shaping and adjustment to specific needs – neodymium magnets can be manufactured in multiple variants of geometries, which extends the scope of their use cases,
- Significant impact in new technology industries – they are utilized in hard drives, electric drives, medical equipment and high-tech tools,
- Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer intense magnetic field in tiny dimensions, which makes them useful in small systems
Disadvantages of NdFeB magnets:
- They may fracture when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to shocks, it is advisable to use in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks and strengthens its overall strength,
- They lose magnetic force at increased temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent loss in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the dimensions and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
- They rust in a humid environment. For outdoor use, we recommend using waterproof magnets, such as those made of polymer,
- Using a cover – such as a magnetic holder – is advised due to the restrictions in manufacturing fine shapes directly in the magnet,
- Possible threat related to magnet particles may arise, when consumed by mistake, which is crucial in the protection of children. It should also be noted that small elements from these assemblies can hinder health screening when ingested,
- High unit cost – neodymium magnets are costlier than other types of magnets (e.g., ferrite), which can restrict large-scale applications
Handle with Care: Neodymium Magnets
Neodymium magnetic are highly susceptible to damage, resulting in their cracking.
In the event of a collision between two neodymium magnets, it can result in them getting chipped. They are coated with a shiny nickel plating similar to steel, but they are not as hard. In the case of a collision between two magnets, there can be a scattering of small sharp metal fragments in different directions. Protecting your eyes is essential.
Neodymium magnets are the most powerful magnets ever invented. Their power can shock you.
Read the information on our website on how to properly utilize neodymium magnets and avoid significant harm to your body and unintentional disruption to the magnets.
Magnets will attract to each other, so remember not to allow them to pinch together without control or place your fingers in their path.
Neodymium magnets bounce and also touch each other mutually within a radius of several to almost 10 cm from each other.
Magnets should not be treated as toys. Therefore, it is not recommended for youngest children to have access to them.
Neodymium magnets are not toys. You cannot allow them to become toys for children. Small magnets pose a serious choking hazard or can attract to each other in the intestines. In such cases, the only solution is to undergo surgery to remove the magnets, and otherwise, it can even lead to death.
Never bring neodymium magnets close to a phone and GPS.
Magnetic fields can interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in aviation and maritime navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices. There are neodymium magnets in every smartphone, for example, in the microphone and speakers.
Neodymium magnets should not be near people with pacemakers.
In the case of neodymium magnets, there is a strong magnetic field. As a result, it interferes with the operation of a heart pacemaker. Even if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the entire device.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
The magnet is coated with nickel - be careful if you have an 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, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Although magnets have shown to retain their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, this temperature may vary depending on the type of material, shape, and intended use of the magnet.
Do not place neodymium magnets near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.
Magnetic fields generated by neodymium magnets can damage magnetic storage media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, video tapes, or other similar devices. They can also damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. Avoid placing neodymium magnets in close proximity to electronic devices.
