Abstract
A method of making a magnetic material for a permanent magnet using hot-pressing or die-upset methods, or both, by combining two powders and optimizing grain boundary diffusion of Dy or Tb. The method can include making magnetic material for a permanent magnet using hot pressing using a core powder containing Nd, Fe and B and a surface powder containing Dy or Tb in metallic alloy form, combining the materials, forming a solid material in a shaped mold under a magnetic field in vacuum, heating the solid material, hot pressing it to form a magnetic material in a die, heat treating it if necessary, and then cooling it.
