The microstructure of Fe‐Nd‐B based magnets consists of mainly Fe14Nd2B (Φ) grains embedded in a eutectic matrix of mainly Nd plus some Fe4Nd1.1B4 (η) and Fe‐Nd phases stabilized by impurities. The addition of Al or Ga to Fe‐Nd‐B material leads to the formation of quite different ternary intergranular phases based on Fe, Nd and Al or Ga. The main phase stabilized by these additions is a phase (δ) with the composition Fe70−xNd30Tx (for T=Al: 8≤x≤25; for T=Ga: 3≤x≤8). In standard magnet compositions the pure Nd is still dominant in the intergranular region and causes corrosion problems due to high sensitivity to oxygen and humidity. By choosing an appropriate gross composition for the master alloy based on the knowledge of the phase relations, a new microstructure can be created consisting of Φ and an intergranular Fe‐Nd (Al or Ga) phase almost without the residual Nd phase. The magnetic parameters of this material are comparable to or even better than those of conventional Fe‐Nd‐B materials. The δ phase cr...
