Rare Earth Magnets ? An Introduction to Neodymium Magnets

Rare Earth Magnets ? An Introduction to Neodymium Magnets

Be aware that the Periodic Table of Elements has a section referred to as the Lanthanide section. Essentially, such a section lists down all rare earth elements which are richly available in the Earth’s crust. Neodymium is an example of an earth element that is quite rare. Also, its strength is a lot greater compared to that of alnico or ferrite. Take note that it is highly affordable and is the strongest of its type as it is a standard feature in the creation of rare earth magnets.

The Basics of Neodymium Rare Earth Magnets

The Basics of Neodymium Rare Earth Magnets

The most powerful magnets ever known are Neodymium rare earth magnets. Just like a magnet on the refrigerator in your household, these are made of materials which create a magnetic field by themselves and become magnetic and hence they are known to be “permanent” magnets. The word “rare” is used in the name as they require a combination of 15 different rare elements of the scandium, yttrium and lanthanides series. Magnetic field generated by these rare earth magnets is so powerful that a large one can disrupt the working of a CT scanner, erase hard drives and de-magnetize other media which is magnetic. Also, these magnets are capable of erasing information on magnetic strips like the ones used in credit and identification cards.
