Rare earth magnets are strong permanent magnets made from the alloys of rare-earth elements and were developed in the 1970s and 1980s. Rare-earth elements are ferromagnetic in nature which can be magnetized like iron. Unlike, ferrite or alnico magnets, rare-earth magnets have comparatively higher magnetic field strength and magnetic stability. However, these magnets have a lower Curie temperature due to which they exhibit magnetism only at low temperatures. Therefore, in order to enhance their natural magnetic properties, rare-earth magnet compounds are mixed with transition metals like iron, nickel and cobalt, which have higher Curie temperatures.
According to the latest report by IMARC Group titled, “Rare Earth Magnet Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Forecast and Opportunity 2017-2022”, the global rare earth magnet market has grown at a CAGR of around 8% during 2009-2016, reaching a value of around US$ 11 Billion in 2016. The major factor which has contributed to the growth of the market is the lack of substitutes for rare earth magnets. Some of the other factors which have influenced the market in recent years include the initiatives undertaken by governments to encourage the use of eco-friendly technologies to reduce carbon emissions and the increasing awareness about advanced energy technologies among the consumers.
