Magnetic properties of nanocomposite magnets composed of α-Fe needles and aligned Nd2Fe14B grains were simulated based on the micromagnetic theory. The maximum energy product (BH)maxvs. fraction of α-Fe curve had a peak, and the fraction corresponding to the peak depended on the size of α-Fe needles. For α-Fe needles with the size of 1.5nm, the (BH)maxvalue of approximately 800kJ/m3was obtained at 80vol% α-Fe. The obtained (BH)maxvalue and the corresponding fraction of α-Fe were larger than those calculated for the magnet including cubic α-Fe grains, suggesting that the shape anisotropy suppresses the magnetization reversal in α-Fe needles in cooperation with the exchange coupling. Thus, a large (BH)maxvalue are expected in the proposed nanocomposite magnets.
