Select the Material Family Before the Process

Choose NdFeB, SmCo or ferrite, then specify the intended forming route. Do not compare powder characteristics with a formed specimen without identifying the binder and processing conditions.

Why Our Powders?

Consistent powder means consistent bonded magnets — and consistent magnets mean reliable products for your customers.

  • ✓Certified magnetic properties — every lot tested for Br, iHc, and (BH)max on the agreed test specimen, with the forming route, binder, loading and orientation identified
  • ✓Controlled particle size — laser diffraction particle size analysis on every lot — D10/D50/D90 certified
  • ✓Oxidation protection — passivated and packaged under inert gas for extended shelf life
  • ✓Application-matched — powder optimized for compression bonding, injection molding, or 3D printing processes

Isotropic vs Anisotropic Powder

The magnetic orientation of individual particles determines what you can do with the powder:

  • ✓Isotropic — particles randomly oriented — magnets made from it can be magnetized in any direction; lower energy product (4–8 MGOe); the standard for most bonded applications
  • ✓Anisotropic (HDDR) — particles crystallographically aligned — 1.5–2× stronger when magnetized along the alignment axis but requires field-oriented pressing or molding
  • ✓Our recommendation — start with isotropic; move to anisotropic only if your application needs the extra performance and can tolerate the process constraints

Handling & Storage

Magnetic powders are reactive — handle and store properly:

  • ✓Oxidation — reactivity depends on grade, size distribution and surface treatment; obtain the current safety data sheet and follow its specified handling controls rather than using a particle-size cutoff as a safety rule
  • ✓Storage — use the supplier-specified atmosphere and sealed packaging; confirm the stated 6–12 month reference against the selected grade and storage conditions
  • ✓Safety — wear respiratory protection — NdFeB dust is harmful if inhaled; consult our MSDS before handling
  • ✓We can help — if you lack powder-handling infrastructure, we also supply finished bonded magnets from our own powder — one less thing to manage

Material-specific Powder References

Material-specific tables are preserved below. Request the matching grade datasheet, specimen conditions and particle-distribution record for your selected powder.

The named SrFe₁₂O₁₉ and BaFe₁₂O₁₉ tables below are ferrite references, not NdFeB or SmCo specifications. The first SFP table does not identify a chemical composition in the current source and is kept separately pending material confirmation.

NdFeB

Request a grade-specific datasheet covering powder route, particle distribution, binder and specimen conditions.

SmCo

Confirm composition, thermal requirements, forming route and the test specimen used for magnetic values.

Ferrite

Review the named material systems below. Powder size, formed-specimen magnetic values and shrinkage are separate characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you supply powder or only finished magnets?

Both. Most of our powder production feeds our own bonded magnet lines, but we supply powder directly to qualified customers with appropriate handling capability. Tell us your application — we'll recommend whether powder supply or finished magnets better serve you.

What's the difference between melt-spun and HDDR powder?

Melt-spun (rapidly solidified) powder is isotropic — good for general bonded magnets. HDDR (hydrogenation-disproportionation-desorption-recombination) powder is anisotropic — 1.5–2× stronger but must be magnetized along its alignment axis. HDDR costs 30–50% more and requires field-orientation in your process.

Do you provide MSDS and safety documentation?

Yes — MSDS, transport classifications (UN and IATA where applicable), and handling guidelines accompany every powder shipment. NdFeB powder is classified as flammable solid for fine grades — we ship with appropriate declarations and packaging.

What particle size do I need for injection molding?

Injection molding requires fine powder (D50 5–20μm) to flow through nozzles and fill thin-wall molds without segregating from the polymer carrier. Coarser powder (D50 >50μm) works for compression bonding where the powder is mixed with minimal binder and pressed in a die.
