Abstract

Abstract Magnets are produced by dissolving in a solvent organic polymer which is a binder for magnetic powder, adding a magnetic powder to the solution, then adding to the solution a vehicle in which the polymer is insoluble. The vehicle is added until the polymer has precipitated onto the magnetic particles. These coated particles are then dried and hot pressed within an orienting magnetic field to produce the magnet.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 64 words
The method of making a permanent magnet which comprises: dissolving in a solvent an organic polymer which is a binder for magnetic particles; adding particles of magnetic powder to the resulting solution; adding to said solution a vehicle in which said polymer is insoluble until the polymer precipitates onto the particles; and hot pressing the polymer-coated particles into a compact to form a magnet.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 64 words
The method of making a permanent magnet which comprises: dissolving in a solvent an organic polymer which is a binder for magnetic particles; adding particles of magnetic powder to the resulting solution; adding to said solution a vehicle in which said polymer is insoluble until the polymer precipitates onto the particles; and hot pressing the polymer-coated particles into a compact to form a magnet.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 22 words
The method of claim 1 in which the magnetic particles are selected from the group consisting of cobalt-rare earth and alnico particles.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the hot pressing step is carried out within an orienting magnetic field.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the binder is a polycarbonate resin.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 17 words
The method of claim 4 wherein the solvent is methylene chloride and the vehicle is methyl alcohol.
