Abstract
A case for hydrogen-pulverizing a rare earth metal-based magnetic material is disclosed. The case includes a case body which is formed of a material having a heat conductivity of 1 W/cm·deg or more. At least one heat-transferring/releasing member is mounted in the case body and formed of a material having a heat conductivity of 1 W/cm·deg or more. The magnetic material is accommodated in the case and subjected to a hydrogen pulverization with hydrogen occluded in the magnetic material. Thus, the heating and cooling of the magnetic material can be performed in a short time, thereby achieving the pulverization of the magnetic material with an extremely excellent
