2、the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method describes how to determine the mag-netic characteristics of magnet

3、ically hard materials (permanentmagnets), particularly their initial magnetization, demagneti-zation, and recoil curves and such quantities as the residualinduction, coercive fields, knee field, energy products, andrecoil permeability. This test method is suitable for all materi-als processed into b

4、ulk magnets by any common fabricationtechnique (casting, sintering, rolling, molding, and so forth),but not for thin films or for magnets that are very small or ofunusual shape. Uniformity of composition, structure, andproperties throughout the magnet volume is necessary to obtainrepeatable results.

5、 Particular attention is paid to the problemsposed by modern materials combining very high coercivitywith high saturation induction, such as the rare-earth magnets,for which older test methods (see Test Method A 341) areunsuitable. An applicable international standard is IEC Publi-cation 404-5.1.2 T

6、he magnetic system (circuit) in a device or machinegenerally comprises flux-conducting and nonmagnetic struc-tural members with air gaps in addition to the permanentmagnet. The system behavior depends on properties andgeometry of all these components and on the temperature. Thetests described here m

7、easure only the properties of the perma-nent magnet material. The basic test method incorporates themagnetic specimen in a magnetic circuit with a closed fluxpath. Test methods using ring samples or frames composedentirely of the magnetic material to be characterized, ascommonly used for magneticall

8、y soft materials, are not appli-cable to permanent magnets.1.3 This test method shall be used in conjunction withPractice A 34/A 34M.1.4 The values and equations stated in customary (cgs-emuor inch-pound) or SI units are to be regarded separately asstandard. Within this test method, SI units are sho

Thevalues stated in each system may not be exact equivalents;therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other.Combining values from the two systems may resul

11、MA/m, and Brvalues in the approximate range from 500 G to20 kG 50 mT to 2 T. High-coercivity rare-earth magnet testspecimens may require much higher magnetizing fields thaniron-core electromagnets can produce. Such samples must bepremagnetized externally and transferred into the measuringyoke. Typic

12、al values of the magnetizing fields, Hmag, requiredfor saturating magnet materials are shown in Table 1.1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and

18、initions withsymbols and units are given in Table 1 and Figs. 1-3 of this testmethod.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method is suitable for magnet specification,acceptance, service evaluation, quality control in magnetproduction, research and development, and design.4.2 When a test specimen is

19、cut or fabricated from a largermagnet, the magnetic properties measured on it are notnecessarily exactly those of the original sample, even if thematerial is in the same condition. In such instances, the testresults must be viewed in context of part performance history.4.3 Tests performed in general

20、 conformity to this testmethod and even on the same specimen, but using different testsystems, may not yield identical results. The main source ofdiscrepancies are variations between the different test systemsin the geometry of the region surrounding the sample, such as,size and shape of the electro

21、magnet pole caps (see Annex A1and Appendix X1), air gaps at the specimen end faces, andespecially the size and location of the measuring devices for Hand B or for their corresponding flux values (Hall-effectprobes, inductive sensing coils). Also important is the methodof B calibration, for example,

22、a volt-second calibration of thefluxmeter alone versus an overall system calibration using aphysical reference sample. The method of B and H sensingshould be indicated in test reports (see Section 9).5. Measuring Methods and Apparatus5.1 Measuring Flux and Induction (Flux Density):5.1.1 In the prefe

23、rred B-measuring method, the total flux ismeasured with a sensing coil (search coil) that surrounds thetest specimen and is wound as closely as possible to thespecimen surface. Its winding length should be no more than athird of the specimen length, preferably less than one fifth, andmust be centere

24、d on the specimen. The leads shall be twistedtightly. As the flux changes in response to sweeping the appliedfield, H, the total flux is measured by taking the time integralof the voltage induced in this coil. This measurement is takenwith a fluxmeter. Modern hysteresigraphs use electronic inte-grat

25、ing fluxmeters that allow convenient continuous integra-tion and direct graphic recording of magnetization curves. Ifthe signal is large enough, high-speed voltage sampling at thecoil and digital integration is also possible.5.1.2 The magnetic induction, B, is determined by dividingthe total flux by

26、 the area-turns product, NA,oftheB-sensingcoil. For permanent magnets in general, and especially forhigh-coercivity materials, an air-flux correction is required (see5.3 and 5.4).5.1.3 The total error of measuring B shall be not greater than62%.5.1.4 The change of magnetic induction, D B = B2 B1,int

33、 977/A 977M 0225.2.1 For high-coercivity magnets, it is more convenient tosense directly an electrical signal proportional to the intrinsicinduction, derive the average Biby dividing this flux by thearea-turns product of the surrounding B coil, and to plot Biversus H as the primary demagnetization c

34、urve. B then isobtained by mathematical or electronic addition of H to B.5.2.2 The change of intrinsic induction in the test specimencan be determined by integrating the voltage induced in adevice comprising two sensing coils, both subject to the sameapplied field H, where the test specimen is conta

35、ined in onlyone of the coils (Coil 1). If each individual coil has the samearea-turns product, and if the windings are connected electri-cally in opposition, the signal induced by the flux linking Coil2 (not containing the specimen) will compensate for the outputof Coil 1 except for Biwithin the tes

Testspecimens of lower-coercivity magnets having a range ofcross-sectional areas and shapes can

39、 then be measured with thesame coil device. An arrangement of side-by-side coils of equalsize is useful. Serious errors, however, are incurred whenmeasuring Bithis way on high-Bror high/coercivity magnets,or both, at applied fields of about 10 kOe or more. The errorsare most severe for test specimen

40、s of short pole-to-pole length.Local pole-piece saturation causes strong field inhomogene-ities. The specimen then must fill the cross section of Coil 1,and Coil 2 must be a thin and flat coil, or a coaxial annular coil,either centered on the specimen or in close proximity to itssurface (see 5.3).5.

41、2.4 The total error of measuring Bishall be not greaterthan 62%.5.3 Measuring the Magnetic Field Strength:5.3.1 For correct magnetization curves, one should knowthe magnetic field strength, H, inside the test specimen,averaged over the specimen volume if H is not uniform. Butthis inner field cannot

42、be measured. At the surface of the testspecimen, H is equal to the local field strength just inside thespecimen in those locations (and only there) where the Hvector is parallel to the side surface of the specimen. Therefore,a magnetic field strength sensor of small dimensions relative tothe specime

43、n is placed near the specimen surface and sym-metrical with respect to the end faces, covering the shortestpossible center portion of the specimen length. It shall be sooriented that it correctly measures the tangential field compo-nent.5.3.2 To determine the magnetic field strength, a flat surfacec

44、oil, a tightly fitted annular coil, a magnetic potentiometer, ora Hall probe is used together with suitable instruments. Thedimensions of the magnetic field sensor and its location shallbe such that it is within an area of limited diameter around thetest specimen (see Annex A1).5.3.3 The provisions

45、of 5.3.2 are adequate for measure-ments on magnets having low-to-moderate intrinsic coercivity,such as Alnico and bonded ferrites. For high-coercivity, denseferrites and especially for most rare earth-transition metalmaterials, it is essential for accurate measurement to use thinflat or radially thi

46、n annular H-sensing coils of short length(1/5 to 1/3 of the specimen length), centered on the specimenand placed as close as possible to the specimen surface.5.3.4 The same considerations apply to the H-flux compen-sation coil used in Bimeasurements (see 5.2.3.) When polesaturation can occur, Coil 2

47、 also shall be a thin conforming flatsurface coil for rectangular specimen shapes or a thin annularcoil closely surrounding a cyclindrical specimen, and thespecimen essentially shall fill the open cross-sectional area ofthe Bsensing Coil 1.5.3.5 To reduce other measurement errors, the air gapsbetwee

48、n the flat ends of the test specimen and the pole piecesshall be kept small, typically in the range 0.001 to 0.002 in.0.025 to 0.050 mm (see Fig. 4).5.3.6 The magnetic field strength measuring system shall becalibrated. Any temperature dependence of the measuringinstruments, (for example, Hall probe

49、s), must be taken intoaccount. The total error of measuring H shall be not greaterthan 62%.NOTE 1The end faces of the test specimen should be in intimatecontact with the pole faces. There are always unavoidable small air gapsas a result of surface roughness, poor parallelism of sample or pole faces,or intentional shimming to protect delicate specimens from deformation orcrushing. These cause additional errors in the magnetic field strengthmeasurement and indirectly in the Bimeasurements through air fluxcompe
