TECHNOLOGICAL AND ECOLOGICAL SAFETY IN ASPECT OF CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF RECYCLED NEODYMIUM MAGNETS - ELECTRIC MO-TORS AND HARD DISK
Journal Title: Production Engineering Archives - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
Neodymium magnets currently dominate the magnet market due to their superior magnetic proper-ties with maximum volume minimization. In this paper, the results of X-ray analysis for two types of magnetic powder obtained from the recovered magnets traditionally used in electric motors and hard disk have been presented. The NdFeB magnets are composed of 25-35 wt. % rare earth elements (RE) and the rest being transition metals (mainly Fe.). RE, other than Nd, such Dy, Pr, Tb and Gd or exogen elements, other than Fe, such as Al, Co, Ga, Nb, Si, Cu and Zr can also be present as minor admixtures. This paper brings an opportunity to introduce the hard magnets recycling technology on an industrial scale.

Influence of load and reinforcement content on selected tribological properties of Al/SiC/Gr hybrid composites
Hybrid materials with the metal matrix are important engineering materials due to their outstanding mechanical and tribological properties. Here are presented selected tribological properties of the hybrid composites wit...
Chip breaking phenomenon during cutting steel and polymer materials
Research in 60s and 70s started to deal with the shape of the chip characterization. It was possible then to do a limited study by means of measuring tool park. During such a study, different models for chip formation be...
Evaluation of microbial hazards during creamy cream cheese processing
The purpose of the work was to identify the potential microbial hazards that may occur during the manufacturing process of creamy cream cheese, and to present the means of their elimination or minimization. The analysis...
Statistical Assessment of Coal Charge Effect on Metallurgical Coke Quality
The paper studies coke quality. Blast furnace technique has been interested in iron ore charge; meanwhile coke was not studied because, in previous conditions, it seemed to be good enough. Nowadays, requirements for blas...
Supporting autonomous vehicles by creating HD maps
Maps are constantly developing, also, the newly defined High Definition (HD) maps increase the map content remarkably. They are based on three-dimensional survey, like laser scanning, and then stored in a fully new struc...
