Les aimants permanents sont des matériaux caractérisés par une induction magnétique rémanente [...], les rendant aptes à créer un champ magnétique sans dépense d'énergie. Les matériaux à aimants permanents sont nombreux (Remalloy, Vicalloy, Alnico, ferrites), mais les aimants les plus couramment utilisés actuellement sont constitués d'alliages céramiques de type Co5Re(où RE est un élément de terres rares : Sm, Sr, Ce, Hd etc.) ou fer-néodyme (Fe-Nd) [...] Dans les séparateurs magnétiques, les aimants permanents peuvent être montés avec pièces polaires [...] Sans pièces polaires, les lignes de champ magnétique se propagent loin dans l'espace (champ magnétique profond) et les valeurs maximales du champ magnétique ne dépassent pas 100 kA/m. 3, record 2, French, - aimant%20permanent
