Abstract
A gap in the market exists between super strong neodymium magnets and less sensitive ferrite magnets. This gap means that compromises are made in engineering items like car sensors or wind turbine rotors. The Critical Materials Institute is working on a cerium-based magnet that will hit the sweet spot between powerful rare earth magnets and the much weaker ferrites. The magnet is process effective and less susceptible to supply chain disruptions. Its unique intra-granular coercivity mechanism does not require complicated microstructure developments and opens potential for advanced manufacturing.
