Samarium-cobalt (SmCo) magnets are a type of rare-earth magnet. They are manufactured by melting a carefully proportioned mixture of samarium, cobalt, and other rare-earth metals into an alloy, which is then milled, pressed, and sintered into a magnetic material.
These magnets feature a high maximum energy product and an extremely low temperature coefficient. Their maximum operating temperature can reach up to 350°C, with no restriction on sub-zero temperatures. At operating temperatures above 180°C, their maximum energy product (BHmax), coercivity, temperature stability, and chemical stability all surpass those of neodymium (NdFeB) permanent magnets.
Furthermore, they possess exceptional resistance to corrosion and oxidation. Consequently, they are widely used in aerospace, defense and military industries, microwave devices, communications, medical equipment, instruments, meters, various magnetic transmission devices, sensors, magnetic processors, electric motors, and magnetic lifters.
