NdFeCo magnetic powder was prepared by the process of smelting,high-energy ball milling and oxidation heat treating.The effects of oxidation heat treatment and Co content on phase composition and microwave absorbing properties of NdFeCo magnetic powder were investigated by an X-ray diffractometer(XRD)and vector network analyzer.The minimum reflectivity of Nd23.25Fe36.75Co40 powder before oxidation heat treatment was-6.2 dB,and that of oxidized powder decreased to-14.0 dB.The microwave absorbing properties of NdFeCo magnetic powder could be improved effectively by oxidation heat treatment.With the increase of Co content,the Fe2O3 reduced and the Nd2O3 increased;Fe3Co7 phase appeared when the content of Co increased to 40%(mass ratio);the absorption peak was found to move towards lower frequency region first,and then it moved towards a higher frequency region.Nd23.25Fe66.75Co10 powder had better comprehensive properties in absorbing microwave in the frequency band of 3-13 GHz.The value of minimum reflectivity and absorption peak frequency,when the coating thickness(d)was 1.8 mm,were-19.7 dB and 4.8 GHz,respectively.
