Two types of textured, fully dense NdFeB hydrogenation, disproportionation, desorption, and recombination (HDDR) magnets were produced. The first type was produced by hot pressing isotropic HDDR powder followed by die upsetting; the second, by hot pressing prealigned, anisotropic HDDR powder (MQA-T). Studies of the magnetization processes revealed that for isotropic HDDR powder and its hot pressed and die-upset magnets a much larger initial susceptibility is found after thermal demagnetization than after reverse dc-field demagnetization. Prealigned, hot pressed magnets made from MQA-T material showed a different virgin magnetization curve, indicating a unique coercivity mechanism. Interaction domains larger than the average grain size can be observed in both cases by Kerr microscopy, with the MQA-T type showing significantly broader interaction domains. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.
