Provided are raw material alloy flakes for a rare earth sintered magnet and a method for producing the same. The alloy flakes have a roll-cooled face, and (1) contain at least one R selected from rare earth metal elements including Y, B, and the balance M including iron, at a particular ratio; (2) as observed in a micrograph at a magnification of 100× of its roll-cooled face, have not less than 5 crystals each of which is a dendrite grown radially from a point of crystal nucleation, and crosses a line segment corresponding to 880 μm; and (3) as observed in a micrograph at a magnification of 200× of its section taken generally perpendicularly to its roll-cooled face, have an average distance between R-rich phases of not less than 1 μm and less than 10 μm.

The invention provides a method for producing alloy flakes for rare earth sintered magnets, which makes uniform the intervals, size, orientation, and shape of the R-rich region and the dendrites of the 2-14-1 phase, which inhibits formation of chill, and which produces flakes that are pulverized into powder of a uniform particle size in the pulverization step in the production of a rare earth sintered magnet, and that are pulverized into powder compactable into a product with a controlled shrink ratio, and alloy flakes for a rare earth sintered magnet obtained by the method, and a rare earth sintered magnet having excellent magnetic properties. The present method includes preparing an alloy melt of a composition consisting of R of rare earth metal elements and the balance M including B and Fe, and supplying and solidifying the alloy melt on a cooling roll, wherein the roll has on its surface linear nucleation inhibiting portions for inhibiting formation of dendrites or the like, and nucleating portions for formation of the dendrites, and wherein the inhibiting portions have a region with a width of more than 100 μm.

The present invention relates to a Sm—Co based magnet alloy useful as a raw material for producing magnets having high magnetic properties, such as sintered or bonded magnets, methods for producing such an alloy, and sintered or bonded magnets having excellent corrosion resistance and high magnetic properties, such as high coercivity and good squareness. The magnetic alloy is composed of an alloy represented by the formula RM with 32.5 to 35.5 wt % R such as Sm and the balance of M such as Co, wherein ratio (B/A) of the X-ray diffraction intensity (B) corresponding to the (119) plane of R2M7 phase to the X-ray diffraction intensity (A) corresponding to the (111) plane of RM5 phase is not higher than 0.1.
