A method for producing magnetic powder for forming a sintered body that is a precursor of a rare-earth magnet. Provided is a method for producing magnetic powder for forming a sintered body that is a precursor of a rare-earth magnet, which can produce magnetic powder with a structure containing optimal nanosized crystal grains by accurately and efficiently sorting out magnetic powder containing no coarse grains in the structure thereof. A method for producing magnetic powder p for forming a sintered body S that is a precursor of a rare-earth magnet, the sintered body S including an Nd-Fe-B-based main phase with a nanocrystalline structure, and a grain boundary phase around the main phase, and the rare-earth magnet being adapted to be formed by applying hot deformation processing to the sintered body S for imparting anisotropy thereto and diffusing an alloy for improving coercivity therein, the method including discharging a metal melt onto a chill roll R to produce a quenched ribbon B, and grinding the quenched ribbon B into grains in the size range of 50 to 1000 µm to produce magnetic powder in the mass range of 0.0003 to 0.3 mg; conducting a test to see whether or not the magnetic powder in the mass range adsorbs onto a magnet with a surface magnetic flux density of 2 mT or less, and sorting out magnetic powder p that has not adsorbed onto the magnet, as the magnetic powder for forming the sintered body S.

An electrode catalyst for a fuel cell, which has improved performance compared with conventional platinum alloy catalysts, a method for producing the electrode catalyst, and a polymer electrolyte fuel cell using the electrode catalyst are provided. The electrode catalyst for a fuel cell comprises a noble-metal-non-precious metal alloy that has a core-shell structure supported on a conductive carrier. The composition of the catalyst components of the shell is such that the amount of the noble metal is greater than or equal to the amount of the non-precious metal.

A method of producing core/shell composite nano-particles exhibiting superior characteristics, by using as cores nano-particles heat treated in advance so as to give them a specific crystal structure in a state using a barrier layer to prevent sintering and forming shells on their surface, which eliminates hindrances to the shell forming reaction due to the phase transfer catalyst or other strongly sticky dispersant, is provided. A method of producing core/shell composite nano-particles comprising nano-sized core particles covered by shells, the method comprising dispersing core particles heat treated in advance to give them a crystal structure expressing the necessary characteristics in a first organic solvent by a first dispersant to prepare a first solution, adding a polar solvent to peel off the first dispersant from the core particles and making the nano-particles agglomerate to recover them, making the recovered core particles disperse in a second organic solvent by a second dispersant to form a second solution, and adding a precursor of the shells to the second solution and forming shells on the surfaces of the core particles.

A nanocomposite magnet having a core-shell structure that includes a hard magnetic phase of an Nd2Fe14B compound as a core (1) and a soft magnetic phase of Fe as a shell (2) is produced by adding and dispersing particles of the Nd2Fe14B compound into a solvent that contains a surface-active agent, and then adding thereto an Fe precursor so as to cause Fe particles on the surface of the Nd2Fe14B compound, and drying and sintering the particles of the Nd2Fe14B compound.
