Patent CA-2696700-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SAGAWA MASATO
IPC: H01F1/053
Filed: 2008-08-20
Abstract: A mold which is inexpensive and easy to process and does not embrittle. Also provided is a process by which a sintered NdFeB magnet can be produced using the mold without suffering bending or deformation. At least part (e.g., a bottom plate (11)) of the mold is made of a carbon material. Carbon materials have lower friction with a sinter during sintering than metals. The mold hence enables a sintered NdFeB magnet to be produced without suffering the bending or deformation caused by friction due to sintering shrinkage. Carbon materials are inexpensive and easy to process. The mold does not embrittle even when repeatedly used. Such effects can be significantly produced when a carbon material is used as the bottom plate (11), on which the load of the sinter is imposed during sintering.
