Abstract: | CeCo5 permanent magnetic alloy has been processed by surfactant assisted high energy ball milling. Heptane and oleic acid were used as the solvent and surfactant, respectively. The amount of surfactant used was 50% by weight of the starting powder. The produced particles were deposited on a piece of copper (4 mm in length and width) under a magnetic field of 27 kOe applied along the copper surface and immobilized by ethyl α-cyanoacrylate. Scanning electron microscope pictures show that the particles are flakes, several μm in length and width and tens of nm in thickness. X-ray diffraction patterns and magnetic measurements prove that the flakes are crystalline with c-axes magnetic anisotropy. The easy magnetization axis is oriented perpendicular to the surface of the flake. A maximum coercivity of 3.3 kOe was obtained for the sample milled for 40 min. |
