Shopping tips
Moreover, even though neodymium is part of the strongest magnets, they are susceptible to corrosion in humid environments. For this reason, 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 care during their handling. Therefore, any mechanical processing should be done before they are magnetized.
In terms of safety, there are several 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. Additionally, they can damage 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 susceptible to corrosion, especially in conditions of high humidity. Therefore, they are often covered with thin coatings, such as gold, to preserve them from external factors and prolong their durability. High temperatures exceeding 130°C can result in a deterioration of their magnetic properties, although there are specific 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 conditions, organic or solvent environments, unless they are adequately insulated. Additionally, their use is not recommended in wet conditions, oil, or in an environment containing hydrogen, as they may forfeit their magnetic properties.
Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to their pulling strength, neodymium magnets provide the following advantages:
- They retain their full power for almost 10 years – the loss is just ~1% (based on simulations),
- Their ability to resist magnetic interference from external fields is impressive,
- In other words, due to the metallic gold coating, the magnet obtains an professional appearance,
- They have extremely strong magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
- These magnets tolerate elevated temperatures, often exceeding 230°C, when properly designed (in relation to build),
- With the option for customized forming and personalized design, these magnets can be produced in various shapes and sizes, greatly improving design adaptation,
- Key role in advanced technical fields – they find application in hard drives, electric motors, diagnostic apparatus as well as high-tech tools,
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high magnetic performance, while occupying minimal space,
Disadvantages of rare earth magnets:
- They are fragile when subjected to a strong impact. If the magnets are exposed to external force, they should be placed in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from damage while also increases its overall strength,
- High temperatures may significantly reduce the magnetic power of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent decline 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,
- Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is wise to use sealed magnets made of protective material for outdoor use,
- Limited ability to create internal holes in the magnet – the use of a housing is recommended,
- Potential hazard from tiny pieces may arise, if ingested accidentally, which is significant in the health of young users. Furthermore, miniature parts from these products may complicate medical imaging once in the system,
- Higher purchase price is one of the drawbacks compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget-sensitive applications
Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what it depends on?
The given lifting capacity of the magnet represents the maximum lifting force, assessed in ideal conditions, specifically:
- with mild steel, used as a magnetic flux conductor
- of a thickness of at least 10 mm
- with a smooth surface
- with zero air gap
- under perpendicular detachment force
- under standard ambient temperature
Determinants of practical lifting force of a magnet
Practical lifting force is determined by factors, listed from the most critical to the less significant:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, as even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) causes 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 was determined with the use of a polished steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, however under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a slight gap {between} the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Handle Neodymium Magnets with Caution
Keep neodymium magnets far from youngest children.
Not all neodymium magnets are toys, so do not let children play with them. 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.
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be placed near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.
The strong magnetic field generated by neodymium magnets can damage magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, or other devices. They can also destroy videos, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets away from these electronic devices.
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.
Magnets will attract each other within a distance of several to about 10 cm from each other. Remember not to place fingers between magnets or alternatively in their path when they attract. Depending on how massive the neodymium magnets are, they can lead to a cut or a fracture.
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 are extremely fragile, resulting in shattering.
Magnets made of neodymium are highly delicate, and by joining them in an uncontrolled manner, they will crumble. Neodymium magnetic 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.
Neodymium magnets are over 10 times stronger than ferrite magnets (the ones in speakers), and their power can surprise you.
Make sure to review all the information we have provided. This will help you avoid harm to your body and damage to the magnets.
People with pacemakers are advised to avoid neodymium magnets.
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.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.
Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
In certain circumstances, Neodymium magnets may experience demagnetization when subjected to high temperatures.
Keep neodymium magnets away from 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.
Be careful!
