#China expands #rareearth #exportcontrols, creating risks for PC component supply — Beijing tightens grip on materials for HDDs and more to protect #nationalsecurity
The updated rules, which take effect in December, cover not just elements like #holmium, #thulium, #erbium, and #ytterbium, but also the technical know-how around how they’re turned into #magnets. As dominant supplier of rare earths globally, China exerting more pressure on supply could have knock-on effects.

Ok!
Kiln is unloaded!
#magnets and #wallmonsters.
A final luster firing today, and this #armyofmonsters are off to @pencegallery in Davis, and @crockerart in Sacramento.

ICYMI - in 2022 a research team including Lindsay Greer @Cambridge_Uni discovered a potential new method for making the #magnets used in wind turbines and electric cars (without using #RareEarths): creating #tetrataenite.

Hey, any #researchers (#physics, #materials science, etc) doing #research on magnetic materials [#magnetism]? I'd like your take on the prospect of #tetrataenite as an alternative to #neodymium #magnets. My understanding is that the theoretical magnetic energy product is about 80% that of available neodymium magnets, but that raises the question of how much realizable magnetic energy products might approach theoretical.
