Magnetic properties of the material N38
Physical properties of sintered neodymium magnets Nd2Fe14B
Moreover, although neodymium is a component of the strongest magnets, they are prone to corrosion in humid environments. For this reason, they are coated with a coating of nickel to increase their durability. Interestingly 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 where solvents are present, as well as 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 sensitive to corrosion, especially in conditions of high humidity. Therefore, they are often covered with coatings, such as silver, to shield them from external factors and extend their lifespan. Temperatures exceeding 130°C can cause a reduction 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 immense strength, neodymium magnets have the following advantages:
- They do not lose their strength (of the magnet). After approximately 10 years, their strength decreases by only ~1% (theoretically),
- They are highly resistant to demagnetization by external magnetic field,
- In other words, thanks to the glossy nickel, gold, or silver finish, the element gains an visually attractive appearance,
- They have exceptionally high magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
- Magnetic neodymium magnets are characterized by hugely high magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet and can operate (depending on the form) even at temperatures of 230°C or higher...
- Due to the option of accurate forming and adaptation to individual needs – neodymium magnets can be produced in many variants of shapes and sizes, which expands the range of their possible uses.
- Wide application in advanced technologically fields – are utilized in hard drives, electric drive mechanisms, medical equipment or very highly developed apparatuses.
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They are prone to breaking as they are fragile when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to impacts, we recommend using magnets in a metal holder. The steel housing in the form of a holder protects the magnet from impacts and also 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 loss 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,
- They rust in a humid environment. For outdoor use, we recommend using waterproof magnets, such as those made of rubber or plastic,
- The use of a cover - a magnetic holder is recommended due to the limited production capabilities of creating threads or complex shapes in the magnet
- Health risk to health from tiny fragments of magnets are risky, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the context of child safety. Additionally, tiny parts of these magnets can hinder the diagnostic process when they are in the body.
Be Cautious with Neodymium Magnets
Under no circumstances should neodymium magnets be placed near a computer HDD, TV, and wallet.
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 away from these 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 are the most powerful, most remarkable magnets on earth, and the surprising force between them can shock you at first.
Familiarize yourself with our information to properly handle these magnets and avoid significant injuries to your body and prevent disruption to the magnets.
Magnets are not toys, youngest should not play with them.
Remember that 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 significant injuries, and even death.
Magnets made of neodymium are highly delicate, they easily crack and can become damaged.
In the event of a collision between two neodymium magnets, it can result in them getting chipped. Despite being made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel plating, they are not as hard as steel. 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 can attract to each other due to their immense internal force, causing the skin and other body parts to get pinched and resulting in significant injuries.
Magnets will attract each other within a distance of several to around 10 cm from each other. Remember not to put fingers between magnets or in their path when they attract. Magnets, depending on their size, are able even cut off a finger or alternatively there can be a serious pressure or even a fracture.
Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
While Neodymium magnets can lose their magnetic properties at high temperatures, it's important to note that the extent of this effect can vary based on factors such as the magnet's material, shape, and intended application.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
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.
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.
