Magnetic materials are now mainly divided into two categories, one is soft magnetic materials, the other is hard magnetic materials (permanent magnetic materials).

Soft magnetic material: high permeability, easy to be magnetized and easy to demagnetize. In the saturation state, the magnetic flux is large, the coercivity (Hc) is small, the total area of the hysteresis loop is narrow and long, and the loss is small (the total area of HdB is small). Contains magnetic pure iron, silicon steel sheet, (Fe, Ni) ferrite core, etc.

They are suitable for automotive relays, motors, transformer skeletons and magnetic rings of various high-frequency magnetic induction components.

Soft magnetic materials are easy to be magnetized and easy to demagnetize, and their main functions are magnetic conductivity, conversion and transmission of electromagnetic energy, and are widely used in various electrical energy conversion equipment. 

Soft ferrite is the most used in inductance components. Soft ferrite is a kind of composite oxide. It is a composite body sintered by some metal oxides through a ceramic process. It is higher than metal materials, so the eddy current loss is extremely small, and it can work under high frequency conditions. However, because the electromagnetic characteristics are affected by temperature, it is not suitable for high-power electromagnetic devices, and it is only suitable for working under medium-high-frequency and low-power conditions.

Hard magnetic material: large magnetic energy product (Hc) (>102A/m), large magnetic loss Br, large total area of hysteresis loop, and large loss. Such as tungsten steel material, carbon steel, AlNiCo alloy, etc. After being magnetized, it can maintain strong magnetism for a long time, and is suitable for making permanent magnets in magnetoelectric watt-hour meters, electromagnets in mobile phone earphones, and rare earth permanent magnet speakers.

At present, our factory produces hard magnetic materials, that is, permanent magnet materials, including AlNiCo, SmCo, ferrite and NdFeB. Among them, the most expensive is SmCo magnet, and the cheapest is ferrite.The one with the highest performance is the NdFeB magnet, but the one with the most stable performance and the best temperature coefficient is the AlNiCo magnet.You can choose different hard magnetic products according to different needs.

People familiar with magnet materials must have heard of Al-Ni-Co magnets. Alnico permanent magnet material is an alloy composed of metal aluminum, nickel, cobalt, iron and other trace metal elements. Al-Ni-Copermanent magnet material is the earliest widely used permanent magnet material, and its preparation process and technology are quite mature. Before the discovery of rare earth permanent magnet materials in the 1970s, Al-Ni-Co alloy was the strongest permanent magnet material, and was gradually replaced by ferrite permanent  magnets and rare earth permanent magnets.

AlNiCo is mainly produced by casting method, and powder metallurgy can also be used to make sintered magnets corresponding to cast magnets, but the performance is slightly lower. The casting process can be processed into magnets of different sizes and shapes. Compared with the casting process, the sintered products are limited to small sizes, and the dimensional tolerances of the produced blank products are small, and the casting processability is good. Among the permanent magnet materials, Cast AlNiCo permanent magnets have the lowest reversible temperature coefficient, and the working temperature can be as high as 500 degrees Celsius.

AlNiCo magnets have good temperature stability and aging stability, and are suitable for making instruments, motors, electroacoustic devices, and magnetic machinery. AlNiCo magnets are also often seen in other high temperature resistant fields

Magnet is used in many places in the home, it is actually in every corner of our life, but we do not find it.

Why is it so widely used? Because a lot of electrical appliances if there is no magnet, there is no way to work, I will introduce some common products to you from several aspects, you can have a look!

1. Microwave magnet: Almost every family has a microwave oven, which brings a lot of convenience to our daily life, but have you ever thought that the magnet plays a very important role in the microwave oven?

Normally, microwave ovens have two magnets in the magnetron that guide electrons to heat food.

2.Magnetic Knife Holder: Proper placement of sharp kitchen utensils, such as knives and forks, is a constant headache for many people. We all know that keeping a sharp knife in a drawer is very dangerous. Magnet manufacturers tell you that with the help of magnets, sharp knives and forks can be safely fixed to the wall of the knife holder.

3.Speaker magnets: Speakers are one of the most important pieces of equipment in our home audio system. You can find magnets in all speakers. Magnets can interact with coils in the speaker to produce sound. To produce a powerful sound, some small, powerful speakers use neodymium magnets.

4.Treadmill Magnets: Treadmills are a great choice for home exercise equipment. When we run on a treadmill, a magnet passes through a sensor to count revolutions as the machine moves.And convert it into distance information.

5.Laptop Magnets: Many of the gadgets in our regular laptops use magnets. Magnets, for example, are used in laptop speakers and small fan motors. In addition, you can find a magnet on the laptop's hard drive (usually on the lid) so that the computer can know whether the lid is open or closed.

6.Telephone magnets: We often use magnets on our mobile phones, while microphones and speakers use small magnets to capture and produce sound.

7.Handbag Magnets: Many girls like handbags not only because they are useful, but also because they are a fashion statement. Handbags are known for their use of magnets. These magnets can be assembled easily because of magnetism.

The magnet of vacuum cleaner: The magnet is also one of the important parts of vacuum cleaner. A vacuum cleaner works by using an electric motor to drive the blades to spin at high speed and generate negative pressure air in a sealed housing to collect dust. Vacuum cleaners' motors use powerful neodymium magnets to generate high suction.

What factors affect the price of magnets?Why are the quotations of magnets of the same material different?Many novice buyers will have many such questions, and now I will answer them in detail.

The quotation of magnets mainly depends on three factors, the purchase quantity, the specification shape, and the tolerance. The smaller the quantity, the higher the quotation; the more complex the shape, the higher the processing cost; the stricter the tolerance requirements, the higher the processing cost.

Obviously, different materials will naturally affect the price. Usually, the price of NdFeB is definitely higher than that of ferrite. In addition, NdFeB is not corrosion-resistant, and usually needs to be protected by coating. Common coatings are nickel plating, zinc plating, epoxy resin. Choosing a good coating is another cost.

Another example is sintered NdFeB, the price will change with the temperature requirements, the higher the performance, the higher the price.

Finally, and most importantly, the price of magnet raw materials has also been fluctuating.

If you have more questions, feel free to leave us a message, we look forward to communicating with you.

If you've ever purchased a NdFeB magnet, you surely know that almost all NdFeB magnets have a coating, so why don't ferrite magnets need a coating?

First of all, let us know about ferrite magnets, which are non- metallic magnetic materials, also known as magnetic ceramics, so there is basically no corrosion problem. It can be seen everywhere in life. For example, the speaker magnet in the radio is a ferrite magnet.

The magnetic performance of ferrite is not high. It is hard and brittle, but at the same time, it has many advantages,it is not easy to demagnetize, not easy to corrode, and it is cheap.

Similar to ceramics, it is generally formed by molds and sintered, and it is difficult to be machined, so most ferrite products have simple shapes and large dimensional tolerances.

Surface magnetism, also known as surface magnetic field, refers to the magnetic induction intensity at a

certain point on the surface of the magnet, and the unit is Gauss Gs or Tesla T (1T=10000Gs).

The parameter of surface magnetism is easy to measure. When the size of the magnet is determined, people

often judge the performance of the magnet by comparing the surface magnetism. When encountering some

magnets that are not suitable for routine measurement, particularly large or small, and special shapes,surface  magnetic measurement is particularly important.

But we need to know that the surface magnetism is the value measured by the Gauss meter in contact with a certain point on the surface of the magnet. The measurement point does not cover the entire surface of the product. The surface magnetism of different positions on the surface of the magnet is different, so take a certain point The value to measure the value of the entire face is incorrect For non-multipole magnetized and regular-shaped magnets, the central surface magnetism is generally measured.

The surface magnetism is easily affected by the external environment. When measured in different environments, the measured surface magnetism may be different. For the same magnet, using Gaussmeters from different manufacturers, the measured central surface magnetism may be different. The central surface magnetism of the N pole and S pole of the same magnet is also different. And don't forget that every gauss meter has an error of around 2%. 

It can be seen that the surface magnetic measurement is not objective, and it is not a parameter that can fully reflect the performance of the magnet. Therefore, it is usually not recommended as an evaluation indicator for product transactions.

We have been trading in the magnet industry for many years. A small number of customers indicated that the magnetic force of the permanent magnets they purchased was attenuated, and they usually suspected that it was the quality of the product itself. In fact, the quality of our products can stand the test of the market.Today let’s take a look at what factors lead to demagnetization of permanent magnets:

1. Mechanical vibration and impact cause demagnetization.

2. High temperature demagnetization, the increase in use temperature will cause the magnet to demagnetize.

3. The change of the external current magnetic field causes demagnetization.

4. External magnetic field interference causes demagnetization.
