Correlation between anisotropic fractal dimension of fracture surface and coercivity for Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets

In this work, SEM images analysis and fractal dimension calculations are performed on the fracture surfaces for N50-type with low coercivity, 30 EH-type with high coercivity, and isotropic Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets. It is discovered for the first time that the difference between the fractal dimensio...

description In this work, SEM images analysis and fractal dimension calculations are performed on the fracture surfaces for N50-type with low coercivity, 30 EH-type with high coercivity, and isotropic Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets. It is discovered for the first time that the difference between the fractal dimensions of fracture surface parallel and perpendicular to the c-axis D∥ and D⊥ for N50-type magnet with low coercivity is large, and the difference between the fractal dimensions of D∥ and D⊥ for 30 EH-type magnet with high coercivity is small. However, there is almost no difference in the fractal dimension of D∥ and D⊥ for isotropic magnet. The correlation between anisotropic fractal dimension of the fracture surface and coercivity is revealed. The difference between the fractal dimension of fracture surface D∥ and D⊥ not only reflects the difference in micro morphology, but also serves as an important performance parameter to characterize the coercivity of the magnet, which provides new insights for studying the relationship between the magnetic properties and the microstructure of permanent magnetic materials.
