Coatings for Neodymium Magnets
Nearly every neodymium magnet will be plated or coated and, as the most powerful permanent magnet available, they are used in many different applications. However, they possess physical characteristics that require them to be plated or coated in order to protect them from damage.
In their raw form, neodymium magnets are quite brittle, and as a result are prone to chipping, breakage, and other types of physical damage.
Another concern is that neodymium magnets (which are 65% iron by weight content) are highly vulnerable to corrosion and prone to experiencing erosion and decay if not properly coated.
Fortunately, there are many coating options available for neodymium magnets that protect damage and corrosion from occurring.
