3.4 Development of exchange-coupled nanocrystalline magnets<br />

Nanocrystalline SmCo-based magnets have been widely studied since both SmCo 5<br />

and Sm 2 Co 17 have higher Curie temperatures than other rare-earth transition-metal<br />

compounds used for permanent magnets and have many potential high-temperature<br />

applications [67-70]. Yan et al [71,72] have performed a systematic study of exchangecoupled<br />

nanocomposite SmCo 5 / Sm 2 Co 17 powders synthesised by intensive milling and<br />

subsequent annealing of as-cast alloy. A high coercivity of 2.40 T and a relative remanence<br />

J r / J s = 0.73 were obtained for a sample containing 40% SmCo 5 / 60%<br />

Sm 2 (Co 0.74 Fe 0.1 Cu 0.12 Zr 0.04 ) 17 [72].<br />
