The effect of Nd content and dehydrogenation speed on the microstructure and magnetic properties of hydrogenation-disproportionation-desorption-recombination (HDDR) processed Nd-Fe-B magnetic powders was studied. The NdxB6.4Ga0.3Nb0.2Febal (x=12.5-13.5, at.%) mold casting alloys were subjected to HDDR process after homogenization heat treatment. During desorption-recombination stage, dehydrogenation speed and time were systematically changed to control the speed of the desorption-recombination reaction. The higher Nd content resulted in better magnetic properties of the HDDR powder, and this was attributed to the thicker and more uniform Nd-rich phase at grain boundaries. It was also confirmed that the slow dehydrogenation speed could maximize the effect of high Nd content on the magnetic properties of HDDR powder. At the optimized dehydrogenation speed, the coercivity and remanence was 15.3 kOe and 13.0 kG respectively, at 12.9 at.% Nd content, which resulted in a (BH)(max) of 36.8 MGOe.
