The Highest Temperature that Powerful Magnets Can Withstand

Powerful magnet development, after half a century of baptisms, both in production technology and production or refining of rare earth products have made a revolutionary breakthrough. However, with the popularity of Ndfeb Magnets application, some criminals fraudulently concealed by means of unfair competition, as we all know, Ndfeb strong magnet has a variety of performance grades, that is, ndfeb magnet there are many kinds of different material, of course, price is also different.

At this stage, the market was flooded, the Industrial Magnets material quality are also constantly adulterated, appeared the so-called lower material, such as recycled materials N30, N28, magnetic properties of this material is very unstable impurities and very much, many businessmen to such low-grade material out of the finest materials, vicious competition in terms of price, directly lead to the proliferation of neodymium iron boron magnet market prices, and ultimately selfish person unfavorable follow close on succession, customer complaints, product problems, reparations compensate goods finally get gain extreme notoriety.
Powerful NdFeB magnet high temperature only 180 degrees, of course, also have the special point of material can be temperature to 200 degrees. But from a market point of view, needs high temperature to 200 degrees materials generally use samarium cobalt magnet, SmCo magnet high temperature can reach 350 degrees. A strong magnet ordinary from the lowest material date, normally, the neodymium iron boron magnet inside the material is lowest, that is magnetic this performance with the specifications of the product is the weakest, the highest resistance to temperature was only 80 degrees, the use of temperature can only reach a maximum of 70 degrees or so, when the temperature approaches 80 degrees, began to appear the phenomenon of demagnetization.

Color Glaze Preparation Process

Color selection
According to the general firing temperature, firing atmosphere and base glaze composition conditions, from the characteristics of experience data or grasp of the existing color to choose colors. When the need to obtain intermediate color, the relative contents of several pigments to adjust the available physical complementary method. Such as iron oxide, zirconium vanadium zirconium blue, yellow and other colors, color adjustment, is a good example to adjust hue Applied Physics complementary method. When the glaze is opaque, we should choose suitable opacifying agent, selection of opacifying agent not only to pay attention to its opacifying effect, must pay attention to the color effect on pigment.
Amount of pigment
The pigment amount depends on the color itself in glaze and glaze color depth required. In general, adding amount of pigments in the glaze is about 4 ~ 10%. Some hair color pigment strong ability (such as cobalt blue pigment) and its adding amount can be below 4%; and some hair color ability weak pigment (such as Ge Xihong), the amount of over 10%.
Glaze slurry preparation
In the Ceramic Pigment grinding before, should first control pigment fineness, at present, the pigment fineness of product provided by the suppliers are generally in the 250 mesh sieve range more than 0.05% or so. Pigment fineness greatly on its influence in the glaze color, usually pigment granularity more details in the glaze color ability is strong; and vice versa, and lead glazed coarse and lose luster; but some in the glaze color is not higher solubility, ball milling is careful, otherwise, will reduce its in the glaze color hair ability. Processing fineness color glaze generally million pore sieve (250 mesh sieve residue of about 0.1%).

The glaze
Because pigment easy layered bottom, so in glaze, glaze, glaze slurry uniformity is very important, if the control is undeserved, may cause the product color. The glaze, color glaze layer thickness should be thick, so as to enhance the glaze color saturation, and also has the advantage to overcome the influence of billet color glaze; in addition, the uniform control of glaze thickness, is also an important means to control the products have color defect.
Firing
glaze firing must strictly control the firing temperature and atmosphere according to the species characteristics and glaze color. Therefore, large firing chamber furnace is detrimental to the firing glaze color, because the temperature and atmosphere which cannot be obtained at various sites uniform.
Influence of process factors showed pigment in the glaze color
Effects of A, glaze preparation process
(1) effects of milling equipment: the main effect of ball mill liner and ball stone material. If the lining material for natural flint, balls to natural stone, it is easy to wear, the impurities mixed in glaze and glazed colors; if using high alumina ball mill lining and balls, because of its good wear resistance, little impurity wear into the glaze; even a small amount of wear particles into the glaze, also will not cause too much impact on glaze colors.
(2) the effect of milling time: long ball milling time, ball mill liner wear and the big balls, impurities in the glaze, glaze on the big influence on. Especially flint lining materials and natural stone, the grinding efficiency is low, need long time milling, and its wear resistance is low, so the mixed with impurities in the glaze, glaze effects are also big.
(3) effects of milling fineness: mainly refers to the pigment fineness. Shall determine its fineness according to characteristics of color itself (see above), such as yellow, Ge Xihong and other colors, is not too fine grinding.
(4) sieving to eliminate influence of iron: iron removal through sieving is glaze slurry preparation process essential process, it can remove the iron in the glaze, glaze have great spots to avoid. But when the pigment also has magnetic, not iron removal, otherwise it will remove the color glaze, glaze color caused by the loss, the glaze color is more shallow. Not iron pigment mainly iron containing pigments, such as zirconium iron pink, red brown, black, with particular attention paid to the pigment in the above time.
(5) the glaze slurry uniformity effect: uniformity glaze slurry mixed directly affect the consistency of product glaze colors. Glaze the uniformity of poor, the product easy occurrence chromatism. If the same number of glaze in two ball milling, the best should be two times of the first milling glaze slurry in the same slurry tank after mixing evenly, and then the di

Some Useful Advice About Safely Store Rare Earth Magnets

Rare-earth magnets have existed since the 1970's and would be the most effective permanent magnets available. They are created using alloys of several elements, including rare earth elements coupled with a metal like nickel, iron or cobalt to produce a magnet that was more secure.
As these magnets are so incredibly powerful, rare-earth have a tendency to be dangerous. They can snap together quite difficult and unless they are safely stored, they may snap on your own fingers, causing some injuries and ripping skin.
Safe Storage of Rare Earth Magnets
Rare-earth magnets that are storing is a thing that anybody can do using a handful of simple substances that you likely have on hand.

Styrofoam is in shielding rare-earth magnets, invaluable. You'll be able to simply cut on a large block of Styrofoam and cut out the contours of the magnets. Work with a hot knife since Styrofoam can be difficult to cut, to achieve this readily. It may be better to lay out the magnets in the block and trace around them , then do the cutting with the magnets set aside. The less wriggle room there is, the less likely they're to fly out when another magnet or part of metal passes above.
From one half of your block, cut out two blocks that are 2" high and 1" long and wide. These may be pasted to the block that was contrary to make an interlocking storage unit that will securely carry the magnets without slipping.
An alternative is wood.
Duct tape is helpful in shielding the magnets and may also serve this function. Just roll the magnet. It will work as standard magnetically, but will be somewhat cushioned. A superb layer of duct tape will keep the magnets protected and should you leave a twist sticking up, it is possible to pull the magnet from other items.
Keeping rare-earth magnets is one thing that must be high priority to prevent physical injury to you personally or injury to the magnets. Keep in mind that whatever you use should block magnetic power and with adequate space the magnets cannot link with each other or any other material.
Adding a handle of a single kind or another can also be helpful, since it allows one to distinguish magnets simpler than if you have to pry them apart with your fingers.

Selection and Effect of Ceramic Pigment Granularity

Ceramic pigment particles in the pigment fineness degree are often spoken by people, for a great color and tone color effect. At present most of the calcined pigment particles, the average grain size of 1 microns -10 microns. Screening [325] is to choose the most suitable particle size distribution.

Ceramic pigment particle size Is it right? Smaller is better?
Is not the pigment particle size color effect. Pigment at the dissolution degree melting glaze performance for surface volume per unit volume of pigment function of ceramic pigment, surface area and particle size is inversely proportional to.
Because the pigment particle size smaller, solubility in glaze more in. It will cause is glaze dissolved, the formation of adverse effects. Such as the content of cobalt pigment is most easily dissolved cobalt present glaze flow phenomenon, so color glaze will form the color uneven defects. In addition also should control the pigment particles of maximum diameter, to prevent pigment particles formed the inhomogeneous surface. Some Ceramic Colors enterprises in the form of pigment processing experience, that the maximum particle size processing pigment glaze layer to lower than 1/10 is appropriate.
The choice of granularity
Ordinary glaze particle size about 20 microns is preferred. In the production of pigments, calcined by grinding method for deciding ceramic pigment fineness. But some paint on the ground instead of the color intensity. The reason is that the reason of grinding pigment particles are exposed new is not color surface, forming a superfluous result. The zirconium color material is most likely to form the phenomenon. Therefore, in the use of pigments, pigment particle size should choose the optimal particle size, to ensure that it has sufficient dispersion in the best color intensity.
Effect of various Ceramic Pigment
Two aspects of package material including particle size and gradation is usually much day sieve margin to express, this method can only measure the ultimate particles. Until the advent of the laser particle size analyzer for measuring the size of laser diffraction method, this phenomenon can be solved thoroughly for the pigment particle size.
★ black material, especially the black material containing cobalt, the smaller the particle size of blackness is better. Brown particle size decreases. The general red, yellow and increases, but the depth of color will make explicit shallow.
★ Co - Si system of song blue ion colouring material. In Opacified Glaze particle size smaller, more uniform to a package; transparent glaze, glaze with decreasing grain size free sword Co+ increases into opportunities four coordinated, the purple Tone Blue yuan increase decrease.
★ Zirconium Silicate Pigment (zirconium color) crystal structure is relatively stable. Little effect size changes within a certain range of colors. But because of zirconium silicate is a kind of strong opacifying agent, size reduction, enhanced opacifying ability, will reduce the color depth. We keep on pigment particle size standard deviation of R medium. The grinding time in glazes must strictly control.
★ wrong vanadium yellow pigment (Zr ~ V) belongs to the "mordant dyeing type" pigment, poor structural stability, effect of particle size on the tone is obvious, therefore, the general should be the basic ground in the glaze is added after mixing.
★ inclusion stains although also belongs to the zirconium silicate type, but is very sensitive to the particle size. Long time grinding the zirconium silicate character is damaged, resulting in hair color lighter, more defects. Therefore, inclusion stains should also be in the glaze grinding after adding mixed use.

Properties Of Ceramic Pigment, Common Role, Preparation Process, Identification Technology

Ceramic pigments are widely used in ceramics, the exterior wall tiles, whole body tiles, polished tiles, powder, different ceramic pigment and has decorative effect of different, the ceramic pigments have in common?
The concept of Ceramic Pigment, pigment or color material, is the base and solvent or additive is prepared into powder colored ceramic decorative material. Pigment = chromophore chromophore + flux as coloring matter and other raw materials.
Effect
It has good covering power, thermal stability;
◆ no bleeding and migration, excellent light fastness and weather ability
◆ with opacity good, insoluble in water and organic solvents;
◆ with stable quality, hair color and strong, easy to disperse, strong coloring, color is bright;
◆Chemical resistance excellent, and most of the thermoplastic and thermosetting resin compatibility
Nature
Powder, odorless gas, insoluble in water, soluble in acetone, insoluble in ethanol, insoluble in acid and alkali, no explosion danger, non-toxic, non radioactive, non flammable, non corrosive.

Process for preparing ceramic pigment
1, mixed
the final color colorant, greatly influenced by adding other ingredients in the colorants. Therefore, in order to make each batch of pigment from the same color, must be in accordance with the composition of weighing and mixing quality will be the same as the raw material of fine.
2, Calcinations
Calcinations is an important process for the Ceramic Colors, the purpose is to make the stabilization. In the calcinations process, because of raw material properties and hope to get the color is different, and different reaction. Using the temperature of calcinations temperature minimum and final products of the same color.
3, washing
The calcined pigment grinding, in order to remove all the soluble substances, should be washed. The uses of chromate pigments must be washed with hot water, such as leftover chromate soluble, appear uneven depth around the chrome color. If not the borate in addition to the net, will produce the film in color.
4, crushing
After washing with pan mill and ball mill, wet grinding required fineness. Pigment particle size is not specified, the general requirements for all through 300 mesh sieve. Crushing is insufficient due to uneven granularity and difficult to use, and the lack of coverage due to the speckle after firing. And crushing over as fine as dust, it can not fully fused in the glaze and become the cause of roll glaze.
How to distinguish between different colors
The most simple is the naked eye, simple to distinguish different color pigments.
