Ferrite magnetic powder and method for production thereof
View Patent ↗A ferrite magnetic powder for bonded magnets bonded using a rubber-base resin as binder, which powder is a ferrite magnetic powder containing an alkaline earth metal and having a chlorine content of 0.05 wt % or less and a powder pH of less than 6. The magnetic powder is produced by pulverizing a calcinated product of ferrite composition containing an alkali earth metal, annealing the pulverized ferrite composition to relieve crystal strain, dispersing the annealed powder in water and adding to it a mineral acid, adding a dispersant thereto, and subjecting the dispersion to solid-liquid separation followed by vacuum drying to obtain a ferrite magnetic powder having a chlorine content of 0.05 wt % or less and a powder pH of less than 6.
1. A bonded magnet obtained by bonding a ferrite magnetic powder containing an alkaline alkali earth metal and having a chlorine content of 0.05 wt % or less and a powder pH of less than 6 with a rubber-based binder selected from NBR (acrylonitrile butadiene copolymer rubber) or EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber).
2. A bonded magnet obtained by bonding a ferrite magnetic powder containing an alkaline earth metal and having a chlorine content of 0.05 wt % or less and a powder pH of less than 6 with a rubber-based binder of a thermoplastic resin having rubber elasticity selected from CPE (chlorinated polyethylene), plasticized PVC (plasticized polyvinyl chloride) or EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer.
