Magnetic properties of the material N38
Physical properties of sintered neodymium magnets Nd2Fe14B
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 coating of silver 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, 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 sensitive to corrosion, especially in humid conditions. Therefore, they are often covered with thin coatings, such as epoxy, to protect them from external factors and extend their lifespan. High temperatures exceeding 130°C can cause a loss 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 environments, basic environments, organic or solvent environments, unless they are insulated. Additionally, their use is not recommended in water, oil, or in an atmosphere containing hydrogen, as they may lose their magnetic strength.
Compilation of suggested goods
Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Apart from immense strength, neodymium magnets have the following advantages:
- They do not lose strength over time. After 10 years, their strength decreases by only ~1% (theoretically),
- They are highly resistant to demagnetization by external magnetic sources,
- Thanks to the shiny finish and nickel, gold, or silver coating, they have an aesthetic appearance,
- They have very high magnetic induction on the surface of the magnet,
- By using an appropriate combination of materials, they can achieve significant thermal resistance, allowing them to operate 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 various forms and dimensions, which expands the range of their possible uses.
- Significant importance in advanced technologically fields – find application in hard drives, electric drive mechanisms, medical apparatus and various technologically advanced devices.
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They are fragile when subjected to a powerful impact. If the magnets are exposed to impacts, we recommend using magnets in a protective case. 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 power 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,
- 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
- Health risk associated with microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which becomes significant in the context of child safety. Furthermore, miniscule components of these devices are able to be problematic in medical diagnosis after entering the body.
Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Neodymium magnets can attract to each other, pinch the skin, and cause significant swellings.
If joining of neodymium magnets is not under control, then they may crumble and also crack. Remember not to move them to each other or have them firmly in hands at a distance less than 10 cm.
You should maintain neodymium magnets at a safe distance from the wallet, computer, and TV.
Strong magnetic fields emitted by neodymium magnets can destroy magnetic storage media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, video tapes, or other devices. They can also damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors, and CRT displays. Avoid placing neodymium magnets in close proximity to electronic devices.
Magnets are not toys, youngest should not play with them.
Not all neodymium magnets are toys, so do not let children play with them. In the case of small magnets, they can be swallowed and cause choking. In such cases, the only solution is to undergo surgery to remove the magnets, and otherwise, it can even lead to death.
Neodymium magnetic are known for their fragility, which can cause them to become damaged.
Neodymium magnetic are highly delicate, and by joining them in an uncontrolled manner, they will break. Neodymium magnets are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel surface, but they are not as hard 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.
Never bring neodymium magnets close to a phone and GPS.
Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that interfere with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
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.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are 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.
The magnet coating is made of nickel, so be cautious 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, try wearing gloves or avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Neodymium magnets are the most powerful magnets ever invented. Their strength can surprise you.
Familiarize yourself with our information to properly handle these magnets and avoid significant swellings to your body and prevent disruption to the magnets.
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 happens because such devices have a function to deactivate them in a magnetic field.
