Abstract
Abstract In production of so-called anisotropic fine gain type hard magnetic material, particles of highly magnetic substance powder are each plated with nonmagnetic substance before compaction, sintering and plastic deformation in order to provide the product with stable magnetic characteristics for reduced production cost.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
116 words
A process for producing hard magnetic material comprising plating powder particles of highly magnetic substance selected from the group consisting of Fe, Co, Ni and alloys thereof with nonmagnetic substance selected from the group consisting of Cu, Al, Sn, Pb, Zn and combination of these metals to form plated particles, said powder particles having a diameter from about 1 to about 1000 microns; compacting the plated particles; sintering the resulting compact; and subjecting the sintered compact to plastic deformation in a prescribed direction, thereby dispersing and orienting in said prescribed direction fine grains of said highly magnetic substance within a base of said nonmagnetic substance, each fine grain corresponding in size to the unit magnetic domain.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
116 words
A process for producing hard magnetic material comprising plating powder particles of highly magnetic substance selected from the group consisting of Fe, Co, Ni and alloys thereof with nonmagnetic substance selected from the group consisting of Cu, Al, Sn, Pb, Zn and combination of these metals to form plated particles, said powder particles having a diameter from about 1 to about 1000 microns; compacting the plated particles; sintering the resulting compact; and subjecting the sintered compact to plastic deformation in a prescribed direction, thereby dispersing and orienting in said prescribed direction fine grains of said highly magnetic substance within a base of said nonmagnetic substance, each fine grain corresponding in size to the unit magnetic domain.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
74 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 in which the combination of said highy magnetic and nonmagnetic substances is chosen from a group consisting of Fe with Cu at 10 to 85 volume occupation ratio of Fe, Fe with Pb at 10 to 85 volume occupation ratio of Fe, Fe with Sn at 10 to 80 volume occupation ratio of Fe, and Fe with Zn at 10 to 80 volume occupation ratio of Fe.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
24 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 in which said diameter of said powder particle is in a range from 5 to 150 μm.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
20 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, or 2, in which said plastic deformation is carried out by hydrostatic extrusion.
