Abstract

The present invention provides a rare-earth sintered magnet that is characterized in that: R (R indicates one or more elements selected from rare-earth elements, wherein Nd is essential), T (T indicates one or more elements selected from iron-group elements, wherein Fe is essential), X (X indicates one or two elements selected from B and C, wherein B is essential), M¹ (M¹ indicates one or more elements selected from Al, Si, Cr, Mn, Cu, Zn, Ga, Ge, Mo, Sn, W, Pb, and Bi), 0.1 mass % or less of O, 0.05 mass % or less of N, and 0.07 mass % or less of C are contained; the average crystal grain size is 4.0 μm or less; and relational expression (1) 0.26×D+97≤Or≤0.26×D+99 is satisfied assuming that the degree of orientation is Or [%] and that the average crystal grain size is D [μm]. With this rare-earth sintered magnet, it is possible to achieve superior magnetic characteristics in which both high Br and high H_cJ are achieved.
