    Compressed Magnet
AI Thread Summary
Compressed non-bonded magnets may be feasible by directly compressing magnet powder in a sealed can-like object without a binder. The discussion highlights the potential for hermetically sealing these magnets to prevent corrosion. Sintered magnets are mentioned as an alternative to bonded magnets, which could meet specific application needs. The conversation also notes that ceramic magnets can be over-molded with materials like Teflon for enhanced purity. Exploring manufacturing options for such non-bonded magnets is essential for practical implementation.

Compressed "non-bonded" magnet - possible?

Dear everyone
As opposed to a bonded magnet being magnet powder "glued" together with e.g. epoxy and which is incapsulated as to prevent corrosion - does anyone know if one can instead compress magnet powder without a binder directly in a can-like object and seal it of hermetically afterwards? And if so, who is capable of manufacturing such an incapsulated and "non-bonded" magnet?
Thank you millions in advance for your time and consideration.

Ceramic magnets are fairly non-reactive, but I've seen them over-molded with Teflon for an ultrapure application. Of course, you have to pay for an injection mold.

Good luck,

Aside from bonded magnets, there are also sintered magnets, would those suit your purposes?
 
Hello! I've been brainstorming on how to prevent a lot of ferrofluid droplets that are in the same container. This is for an art idea that I have (I absolutely love it when science and art come together) where I want it to look like a murmuration of starlings. Here's a link of what they look like: How could I make this happen? The only way I can think of to achieve the desired effect is to have varying droplet sizes of ferrofluid suspended in a clear viscous liquid. Im hoping for the...
Hello everyone! I am curious to learn how laboratories handle in-house chip manufacturing using soft lithography for microfluidics research. In the lab where I worked, only the mask for lithography was made by an external company, whereas the mold and chip fabrication were carried out by us. The process of making PDMS chips required around 30 min–1 h of manual work between prepolymer casting, punching/cutting, and plasma bonding. However, the total time required to make them was around 4...
