Magnetic properties of the material N38
Physical properties of sintered neodymium magnets Nd2Fe14B
Moreover, even though neodymium is part of the strongest magnets, they are prone to corrosion in humid environments. For this reason, they are coated with a coating of nickel to protect them from corrosion. It's worth noting that NdFeB neodymium magnets are about 13% lighter than SmCo magnets and, despite their power, easily break, which requires special caution during their handling. For this reason, 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, and also in water or oil. Additionally, they can damage 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 susceptible to corrosion, especially in humid conditions. Therefore, they are often covered with thin coatings, such as silver, to protect them from external factors and prolong their durability. High temperatures exceeding 130°C can cause a loss of their magnetic strength, although there are specific types of neodymium magnets that can tolerate temperatures up to 230°C.
As for dangers, it is important to avoid using neodymium magnets in acidic environments, basic environments, organic or solvent environments, unless they are properly protected. Additionally, their use is not recommended in wet conditions, oil, or in an environment containing hydrogen, as they may lose their magnetic strength.

Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to immense power, neodymium magnets have the following advantages:
- They do not lose power over time - after about 10 years, their power decreases by only ~1% (theoretically),
- They are exceptionally resistant to demagnetization caused by an external magnetic field,
- In other words, thanks to the shiny coating of nickel, gold, or silver, the element acquires an aesthetic appearance,
- They possess very high magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
- Thanks to their high temperature resistance, they can operate (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C and above...
- Due to the option of accurate forming or adaptation to individual needs – neodymium magnets can be produced in a wide range of shapes and sizes, which amplifies their universality in usage.
- Significant importance in modern technologies – are used in hard drives, electric motors, medical devices and very highly developed apparatuses.
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They can break when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to impacts, we recommend using magnets in a steel housing. The steel housing in the form of a holder protects the magnet from impacts, and at the same time increases its overall strength,
- High temperatures can reduce the strength of neodymium magnets. Typically, after heating above 80°C, most of them experience a permanent reduction in strength (although it is dependent on the shape and size). To prevent this, we offer special magnets marked with the symbol [AH], which are highly resistant to high temperatures. They can operate even at temperatures up to 230°C, making them an ideal solution for applications requiring high-temperature operation,
- Due to their susceptibility to corrosion in a humid environment, we suggest using waterproof magnets made of rubber, plastic, or other moisture-resistant materials when using them outdoors,
- Limited ability to create threads or complex shapes in the magnet - the use of a housing is recommended - magnetic holder
- Possible danger to health from tiny fragments of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting young children. Additionally, miniscule components of these devices can hinder the diagnostic process when they are in the body.
Exercise Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Maintain neodymium magnets far from youngest children.
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.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
Magnets will attract to each other, so remember not to allow them to pinch together without control or place your fingers in their path.
If joining of neodymium magnets is not controlled, then they may crumble and also crack. You can't approach them to each other. At a distance less than 10 cm you should have them very strongly.
Magnets made of neodymium are incredibly fragile, they easily break and can crumble.
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.
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.
The magnet coating is made of nickel, so be cautious 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, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
Although magnets have demonstrated their effectiveness up to 80°C or 175°F, the temperature can vary depending on the type, shape, and intended use of the specific magnet.
People with pacemakers are advised to avoid neodymium magnets.
Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields. As a result, they interfere with the operation of a pacemaker. This is because many of these devices are equipped with a function that deactivates the device in a magnetic field.
Avoid bringing neodymium magnets close to a phone or GPS.
Neodymium magnets produce intense magnetic fields that interfere with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Neodymium magnets are the strongest magnets ever created, and their strength can shock you.
