Specific Differences between Neodymium-Iron-Boron Magnets and Samarium-Cobalt Magnets

DATE : February13, 2025
Share :

Difference in Temperature Resistance


The maximum temperature resistance of neodymium-iron-boron magnets is 220 degrees Celsius, while that of samarium-cobalt magnets can reach up to 350 degrees Celsius, which is significantly higher.

 

Difference in Processing Characteristics


Both materials are relatively brittle. However, relatively speaking, neodymium-iron-boron magnets are easier to undergo mechanical processing.

 

Difference in Outer Surface


Samarium-cobalt magnets usually don't require surface treatment. But if they are used in harsh environments, their service life will be longer and they will look more attractive after electroplating. Neodymium-iron-boron magnets are prone to oxidation and thus need surface electroplating treatment.

 

Difference in Maximum Energy Product


The maximum energy product of neodymium-iron-boron magnets is 52 M, while that of samarium-cobalt magnets is 32 M. From this, it can also be seen that the magnetic force of neodymium-iron-boron magnets is much stronger than that of samarium-cobalt magnets.

 

Difference in Magnetism


When choosing a certain type of magnet, most factors are related to magnetism. Among them, neodymium-iron-boron magnets have stronger magnetism.
