Assessment of corrosion resistance of Nd–Fe–B magnets by silanization for orthodontic applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
Nd–Fe–B permanent magnets are characterised by excellent magnetic properties. However, being extremely vulnerable to the attack of both climate and corrosive environments, their applications are limited. This paper describes how, at different thicknesses of N-propyl-trimetoxy-silane, the coating affects the magnetic force of nickel plated magnets. We also investigate if the corrosion resistance of silanized Nd–Fe–B magnets increases in mildly corrosive environments by immersing them in a synthetic saliva solution. It was found that the silanization treatment does not affect the strength of the magnetic force and provide an enhancement of the corrosion resistance of the substrate. & 2013 Elsevier B.V.

Effect of Post-Sintering Annealing Treatment on Magnetic Properties of Some Nd Fe b Based Magnets
Effects of post-sintering annealing treatment between 300 and 1000ºC for up to 8 hrs time periods followed by either furnace cooling (FC) or air-cooling (AC) on the hard magnetic properties of some Nd-Fe-B based sintered magnets was investigated. It was shown that the intrinsic coercivity (Hci), second quadrant demagnetization loop shape and thus the energy density (BH)max varied considerably a...

متن کاملMagnetic Materials: Novel Monitors of Long-Term Evolution of Engineered Barrier Systems
Most safety cases for the deep geological disposal of radioactive waste are reliant on the swelling of bentonite in the engineered barrier system as it saturates with groundwater. Assurance of safety therefore requires effective monitoring of bentonite saturation. The timeand fluid-dependent corrosion of synthetic magnets embedded in bentonite is demonstrated here to provide a novel and passive...
