Gschneidner and a team of researchers have developed a low-cost cerium-cobalt alloy that can be added to neodymium-iron-boron to improve magnetic properties in rare-earth magnets. The new alloy eliminates the need for dysprosium, one of the scarcest and most costly rare earth elements.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe result, an alloy of neodymium, iron, and boron co-doped with cerium and cobalt, is a less expensive material with properties that are competitive with traditional sintered magnets containing dysprosium. The materials are at least 20 to 40% cheaper than the dysprosium-containing magnets.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tExperiments demonstrate that the cerium-containing alloy&#8217;s intrinsic coercivity \u2014 the ability of a magnetic material to resist demagnetization \u2014 far exceeds that of dysprosium-containing magnets at high temperatures.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&#8220;We found that this material works better than anything out there at temperatures above 150\u00b0C,&#8221; says Dr. Gschneidner. &#8220;It&#8217;s an important consideration for high-temperature applications.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\n\tPrevious attempts to use cerium in rare-earth magnets failed because it reduced the Curie temperature, above which an alloy loses its permanent magnet properties. The research team discovered that co-doping with cobalt allowed cerium to substitute for dysprosium without losing magnetic properties.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tFinding a comparable substitute material is key to reducing manufacturing reliance on dysprosium, because current demand far outpaces mining and recycling sources.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe research was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy&#8217;s ARPA-E REACT program (Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy-Rare Earth Alternatives in Critical Technologies) which develops cost-effective alternatives to rare earths.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ameslab.gov\/\">www.ameslab.gov<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. Department of Energy&#8217;s Ames Laboratory, Ames, Iowa, reports that ASM Fellow Karl A.
