N52 Magnets

Ushering of a New Era by N52 Magnets

With the advancement in technology making earlier equipments obsolete by the minute, it is of vital importance to make new tools keeping in pace with the newer technologies if further progress is to be made.

Magnets being one of the basic necessities of almost any appliances in use today, for a long time scientists have been engaged in the task of producing a really powerful magnet that will be able to bear the brunt of the most strenuous experiments as well as be used for commercial purposes.

With the production of the N52 magnets - the most powerful magnet ever made, the job seems to have finally been done, at least for the time being.

Structure and Functions of N52 Magnets

N52 magnets are in effect a class of the neodymium magnets. This rare earth magnet possesses a crystalline tetragonal structure having iron, boron and neodymium as its constituent elements. Due to its uniquely high magnetocrystalline anisotropy, the N52 magnets have a high coercivity. Its saturation magnetization is also very high.

The only drawback of this type of magnet is a comparatively lower Curie temperature. The N52 magnet can be produced both by the powered sintered magnet process as well as the bonded magnet process. Both varieties of the magnets come with their pros and cons with regards to shape, magnetic force etc and are used accordingly.

Due to their unique properties, N52 magnets have already gained much ground over other types of magnets. In many instances, it has replaced other varieties of magnets. Some of the commonest sectors in which N52 magnets are used are in the production of hard disks, headphones, magnetic bearings, electric motors, cordless tools, compressor motors and motors for hybrid vehicles. Use of this magnet has also expanded into newer territories like making of jewelry clasps, adventure sports gears and so on.

Due to the enormous magnetic force generated by the magnet, it is enough to use a small block in most cases. Thus, the precision of the instrument is increased while bulk is reduced.

Risks Involved in the Use of N52 Magnets

Not for nothing is N52 magnets the most powerful magnet ever made. They have the ability to greatly damage body parts, to the extent of breaking bones, if they are pressed between two small pieces of magnet.

Also, as the magnetic fields produced by the N52 magnets are very powerful, electronic devices coming within their range tend to malfunction or become completely nonfunctional.
