INTERFACE MATERIALS FOR COMPOSITE MAGNETS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17886937 titled 'INTERFACE MATERIALS FOR COMPOSITE MAGNETS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application discloses composite magnets for electrical machines in vehicles with an interface phase different from the magnetically-hard and magnetically-soft phases to create a gradual transition between the two phases.
- Composite magnets have an interface layer to ease the transition between hard and soft phases.
- The addition of an interface layer maintains or enhances magnetic properties even with higher grain sizes.
- The interface layer can be used beyond the nanoscale level.

Original Abstract Submitted
Composite magnets such as for electrical machines in vehicles are disclosed. The composite magnets have an interface phase that is different than the magnetically-hard phase and the magnetically-soft phase to ease the transition or create a gradual transition from between the hard and soft phases of the composite magnet. The addition of, for example, an interface layer maintains or enhances performance of the magnetic properties even with higher grain sizes such as beyond the nanoscale level.
