Shopping tips
Moreover, even though neodymium is a component of the strongest magnets, they are susceptible to corrosion in humid environments. Therefore, they are coated with a thin layer of epoxy to protect them from corrosion. 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, and also in water or oil. Furthermore, 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 coated with thin coatings, such as gold, to shield them from external factors and prolong their durability. Temperatures exceeding 130°C can result in a reduction of their magnetic properties, although there are particular types of neodymium magnets that can withstand temperatures up to 230°C.
As for potential 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 water, oil, or in an atmosphere containing hydrogen, as they may lose their magnetic properties.
Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Apart from their strong magnetism, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
- They do not lose their even during approximately ten years – the loss of strength is only ~1% (according to tests),
- They remain magnetized despite exposure to magnetic noise,
- The use of a decorative nickel surface provides a refined finish,
- The outer field strength of the magnet shows elevated magnetic properties,
- Thanks to their exceptional temperature resistance, they can operate (depending on the form) even at temperatures up to 230°C or more,
- With the option for tailored forming and targeted design, these magnets can be produced in multiple shapes and sizes, greatly improving design adaptation,
- Wide application in advanced technical fields – they serve a purpose in HDDs, electric drives, healthcare devices or even high-tech tools,
- Compactness – despite their small size, they generate strong force, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages of rare earth magnets:
- They can break when subjected to a strong impact. If the magnets are exposed to mechanical hits, they should be placed in a metal holder. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from fracture while also reinforces its overall robustness,
- High temperatures may significantly reduce the field efficiency of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent weakening in performance (depending on height). 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 moisture can degrade. Therefore, for outdoor applications, we suggest waterproof types made of coated materials,
- Using a cover – such as a magnetic holder – is advised due to the difficulty in manufacturing fine shapes directly in the magnet,
- Health risk due to small fragments may arise, when consumed by mistake, which is notable in the protection of children. Furthermore, small elements from these products may hinder health screening when ingested,
- In cases of mass production, neodymium magnet cost may not be economically viable,
Highest magnetic holding force – what it depends on?
The given pulling force of the magnet represents the maximum force, assessed under optimal conditions, namely:
- with the use of low-carbon steel plate acting as a magnetic yoke
- with a thickness of minimum 10 mm
- with a smooth surface
- in conditions of no clearance
- in a perpendicular direction of force
- in normal thermal conditions
Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors
The lifting capacity of a magnet is determined by in practice key elements, from primary to secondary:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, because 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 by applying a smooth steel plate of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a slight gap {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Exercise Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Keep neodymium magnets away from people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that can interfere 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.
Keep neodymium magnets away from the wallet, computer, and TV.
Strong 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. You should especially avoid placing neodymium magnets near electronic devices.
The magnet is coated with nickel - be careful if you have an allergy.
Studies clearly indicate a small percentage of people who suffer from metal allergies such as 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 are particularly fragile, resulting in damage.
Neodymium magnets are highly fragile, and by joining them in an uncontrolled manner, they will crack. 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.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly 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.
Keep neodymium magnets as far away as possible 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.
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.
Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant swellings.
Magnets attract each other within a distance of several to about 10 cm from each other. Don't put your fingers in the path of magnet attraction, as a major injury may occur. Magnets, depending on their size, can even cut off a finger or alternatively there can be a serious pressure or even a fracture.
It is essential to keep neodymium magnets away from youngest children.
Neodymium magnets are not toys. Be cautious and make sure no child plays with them. Small magnets can pose a serious choking hazard. If multiple magnets are swallowed, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls, causing severe injuries, and even death.
Neodymium magnets are the most powerful magnets ever created, and their strength can surprise you.
