Production method for Ramp;#x2014;Tamp;#x2014;B-based sintered magnet

摘要

A step of, while an RLM alloy powder (where RL is Nd and/or Pr; M is one or more elements selected from among Cu, Fe, Ga, Co, Ni and Al) and an RH compound powder (where RH is Dy and/or Tb; and the RH compound is an RH fluoride and/or an RH oxyfluoride) are present on the surface of a sintered R-T-B based magnet, performing a heat treatment at a sintering temperature of the sintered R-T-B based magnet or lower is included. The RLM alloy contains RL in an amount of 50 at % or more, and the melting point of the RLM alloy is equal to or less than the temperature of the heat treatment. The heat treatment is performed while the RLM alloy powder and the RH compound powder are present on the surface of the sintered R-T-B based magnet at a mass ratio of RLM alloy:RH compound=9.6:0.4 to 5:5.
