Neodymium - The Most Commonly Used of Rare Earth Magnets

Neodymium can be considered as one of the most commonly used rare earth magnets that you can find in the present world. The strength and affordability of those magnets have played a major role behind their popularity. These permanent magnets donot easily lose their magnetism. Since their discovery in 1970s, the Neodymium has been a prominent element in many industries.  

Neodymium is a composition of some rare earth elements including nickel, iron and cobalt. They are usually coated for protection that can take place as a result of industry work. The biggest advantage of Neodymium is their strength. Usually the rare earth magnets are stronger than other available permanent magnets, but Neodymium is the strongest. Its unique strength comes from the extremely high magnetic field. Even though Neodymium is a strong rare earth magnet, it is extremely affordable. That is the reason why many people seek the assistance of Neodymium in industries like security, mechanics, health and electronics. 

In the present world, Neodymium plays a major role behind wind power generation. Wind power is generated from wind turbines, which require light weight and efficient motors. Neodymium has the ability to give life to such motors. The affordability of Neodymium has helped a lot for the people to implement new wind farms without any hassle and cater the increasing energy requirements of people. 

Wind power is defined as a more established alternative energy source. In the rural areas of the world, you can find homeowners who seek the assistance of wind power to cater their basic energy requirements. However, such wind turbines cannot be implemented in large scale to provide support for the national electricity grid, without the assistance of Neodymium. These precious magnets have incredibly reduced the weight of motors while maintaining their efficiency. At the end of the day, it has helped people to make efficient wind turbines and create energy in an environmental friendly way.
