Physical properties of NdFeB
Shopping tips
Moreover, although neodymium is part of the strongest magnets, they are prone to corrosion in humid environments. Therefore, they are coated with a coating of epoxy to increase their durability. Interestingly that NdFeB neodymium magnets are about 13% lighter than SmCo magnets and, despite their power, are brittle, which requires special caution 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. It is advisable to avoid their use in acidic, basic, organic environments or in solvents, and also in water or oil. Additionally, they can distort data on magnetic cards and hard drives, although data deletion using a neodymium magnet is not guaranteed.
In terms of properties in different environments, neodymium magnets are sensitive to corrosion, especially in conditions of high humidity. Therefore, they are often covered with coatings, such as silver, to preserve them from external factors and extend their lifespan. Temperatures exceeding 130°C can cause a deterioration of their magnetic strength, although there are specific types of neodymium magnets that can withstand temperatures up to 230°C.
As for dangers, it is important to avoid using neodymium magnets in acidic conditions, basic conditions, 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 forfeit their magnetic strength.
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Besides their stability, neodymium magnets are valued for these benefits:
- They retain their magnetic properties for almost ten years – the loss is just ~1% (based on simulations),
- They protect against demagnetization induced by surrounding magnetic fields very well,
- In other words, due to the metallic silver coating, the magnet obtains an aesthetic appearance,
- Magnetic induction on the surface of these magnets is impressively powerful,
- These magnets tolerate extreme temperatures, often exceeding 230°C, when properly designed (in relation to profile),
- With the option for customized forming and precise design, these magnets can be produced in multiple shapes and sizes, greatly improving engineering flexibility,
- Important function in modern technologies – they are used in HDDs, electromechanical systems, medical equipment as well as sophisticated instruments,
- Compactness – despite their small size, they provide high effectiveness, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages of magnetic elements:
- They can break when subjected to a strong impact. If the magnets are exposed to physical collisions, they should be placed in a steel housing. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from breakage and reinforces its overall resistance,
- High temperatures may significantly reduce the strength of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent loss in performance (depending on shape). 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,
- Magnets exposed to wet conditions can corrode. Therefore, for outdoor applications, we suggest waterproof types made of coated materials,
- The use of a protective casing or external holder is recommended, since machining threads in neodymium magnets is risky,
- Potential hazard related to magnet particles may arise, when consumed by mistake, which is significant in the family environments. Furthermore, small elements from these devices have the potential to interfere with diagnostics if inside the body,
- High unit cost – neodymium magnets are pricier than other types of magnets (e.g., ferrite), which increases the cost of large-scale applications
Detachment force of the magnet in optimal conditions – what contributes to it?
The given pulling force of the magnet means the maximum force, assessed in the best circumstances, namely:
- with mild steel, used as a magnetic flux conductor
- with a thickness of minimum 10 mm
- with a smooth surface
- with no separation
- with vertical force applied
- under standard ambient temperature
Practical aspects of lifting capacity – factors
In practice, the holding capacity of a magnet is affected by the following aspects, in descending order of importance:
- 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 carried out on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under parallel forces the lifting capacity is smaller. Moreover, even a minimal clearance {between} the magnet and the plate lowers the lifting capacity.
Precautions
Neodymium magnets are the most powerful magnets ever invented. Their power can surprise you.
On our website, you can find information on how to use neodymium magnets. This will help you avoid injuries and prevent damage to the magnets.
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 should not be in the vicinity youngest children.
Neodymium magnets are not toys. Be cautious and make sure no child plays with them. In the case of swallowing multiple magnets simultaneously, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls. In the worst case scenario, this can lead to death.
It is crucial not to allow the magnets to pinch together uncontrollably or place your fingers in their path as they attract to each other.
Neodymium magnets bounce and also clash mutually within a radius of several to around 10 cm from each other.
Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
Although magnets are generally resilient, their ability to maintain their magnetic potency can be influenced by factors like the type of material used, the magnet's shape, and the intended purpose for which it is employed.
Keep neodymium magnets away from the wallet, computer, and TV.
Neodymium magnets generate strong magnetic fields that can destroy magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, or other devices. They can also damage devices like video players, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from these electronic devices.
Keep neodymium magnets away from GPS and smartphones.
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 should not be near people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets generate very strong magnetic fields that can 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.
Neodymium magnetic are incredibly fragile, they easily fall apart and can become damaged.
Neodymium magnets are characterized by considerable fragility. Magnets made of neodymium are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel, but they are not as durable as steel. In the event of a collision between two magnets, there may be a scattering of fragments in different directions. Protecting your eyes is crucial in such a situation.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
Warning!
