Abstract: The nanocomposite Nd2Fe14B/PrCo5 melt-spun ribbons were prepared by induction melting and melt-spinning technique, and the effect of PrCo5 addition on the phase structure, magnetic properties and exchange coupling was investigated. The XRD test results indicate that the ribbons has dual hard magnetic phases of Nd2Fe14B and PrCo5, and no oxidation or formation of new phases occur during the preparation process. The content of PrCo5 has an obvious effect on magnetic properties, and the appropriate addition of PrCo5 can help improve coercivity. However, the remanent and maximum magnetic energy product decrease with the increase of PrCo5 content. Research on the recoil loops shows that the "opening" phenomenon of the recoil loops is related to the content of PrCo5, and the δM curve test shows that there is a strong exchange coupling effect in the Nd2Fe14B/PrCo5 ribbons. Comprehensive analysis shows that optimal magnetic properties of the nanocomposite Nd2Fe14B/PrCo5 ribbons can be obtained at 12%PrCo5 content, with remanent Mr of 8.73 kGs, coercive Hcj of 11.03 kOe, and the maximum magnetic energy product (BH)Max of 15.83 MGOe.
