Abstract:
The effects of composition and structure on corrosion behavior ofNd-Fe-B alloy have been studied.The potentials of all main phase of Nd-Fe-B alloy in pure water and NaCl solution were measured.The order of potential is E
(Nd-rieh)<E
(Nd2Fe14B major phase)<E
(B-rich).The corrosion characteristic of Nd-Fe-B permanent alloy is that the Nd-rich grain boundary phase in the alloy is easier to be corroded than the Nd
2Fe
14B grain phase.The experiment results of eviromented corrosion tests showed that the corrosion resistance of the Nd-Fe-B alloy in solution is improved by the addition of Dysprosium,but reduced by the addition of Aluminium to the alloy.
