简介 |
Disclosed is a method of producing a rare earth permanent magnet including preparing a NdFeB sintered magnet, coating a surface of the NdFeB sintered magnet with a grain boundary diffusion material including R hydrate or R fluoride, and RaMb or M, to form a grain boundary diffusion coating layer, and diffusing the grain boundary diffusion material into a grain boundary of the NdFeB sintered magnet by heat treatment, wherein M is a metal having a melting point higher than a heat treatment temperature during the diffusion, R is a rare earth element, and a and b each represent atomic percentages which satisfy the following Equations (1) and (2) :
