You might expect a simple iron magnet to play second fiddle to the fancy rare-earth ones, but Niron Magnetics claims its iron ...

Vehicle signage falls into two basic categories: permanent and temporary. Temporary magnet-backed signs can give your car a dual personality as a private sedan and a literal vehicle for advertising ...

Damping vibrations is crucial for precision experiments, for example in astronomy. A new invention uses a special kind of magnets to achieve this -- electropermanent magnets. They consist of a ...

Magnetic couplings transmit high torque with no physical contact, and they disengage smoothly when load gets too high. Generally speaking, the couplings use magnetic power in three different ways; ...

Physicists Prof. Dr. Ingo Rehberg from the University of Bayreuth and Dr. Peter Blümler from Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz have developed and experimentally validated an innovative approach for ...

Scientists have made a breakthrough in the search for a new, sustainable permanent magnet. Scientists have made a breakthrough in the search for a new, sustainable permanent magnet. Most permanent ...

“Focused” magnet system consisting of two stacked rings, each with 16 FeNdB magnet cuboids (side length 20 mm). The inner diameter is 160 mm, and the magnetic field of 20 mT exhibits a homogeneity of ...

U.S.-based Energy Fuels receives final confirmation from leading global automotive supplier that its high-purity NdPr oxide, mined in Florida and Georgia and processed in Utah, has been qualified for ...

The rise of electric vehicles is threatening supplies of a host of the earth’s elements. Cobalt and lithium for batteries are getting most of the attention, but rare earths for electric motors are ...

Toyota says it has invented a new magnet for high-energy applications like electric motors that uses a fraction of the amount of neodymium (a rare-earth element) of a standard iron, boron, neodymium ...
