Calculating the proportion of Nd-rich phase in NdFeB alloy via Matlab software

Nd-rich phase plays an important role in the magnetic properties of sintered NdFeB alloy. The proportion of Nd-rich phase to all the other phases was calculated by using MATLAB 6.5 software. Especially, post-sintered alloy, post-high- temperature tempered alloy and post-high and low-temperature tempered alloy were analyzed. It was found that the proportion of Nd-rich phase in the three alloys based on SEM (scanning electron microscope) images was about 8.22%, 8.03% and 8.00%,
