Abstract Radially oriented Nd--Fe--B rings are prepared by backward extrusion of fine grained melt-spun powder. Melt-spun powder with the nominal composition of Nd$_{30.5}$Fe$_{\rm bal.}$Co$_{6.0}$Ga$_{0.6}$Al$_{0.2}$B$_{0.9}$ (wt{\%}) is used as starting material. The effects of process variables, such as deformation temperature ($T_{\rm d}$), strain rate ($\dot \varepsilon $) and height reduction ($\Delta h% $), on the magnetic properties of the rings are investigated. A scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with an energy spectrum device is used to study the metallograph and microfracture of the extruded rings. The $B_{\rm r}$ and ${(BH)}_{\rm max}$ reach the optimum values at $T_{\rm d}=800$ ${^\circ}$C, $\dot \varepsilon =0.01$ mm/s, and $\Delta h% =70$%. It is found by SEM observations that the particle boundaries, which seemingly correspond to the interfaces of the starting melt-spun powders, emerge after the corrosion of metallography specimens. This is helpful for studying the effects of powder--powder interface on the local deformation and deformation homogeneity in the rings. For different spatial positions of the extruded rings, there are characteristic metallographies and microfractures. The upper end of the rings has the least deformation and worst texture, and therefore the worst magnetic properties. The magnetic properties in the radial direction increase slightly along the axis from the bottom to the middle, then steeply decrease at the upper end of the ring. The deformation and the formation-of-texturing processes are discussed. The deformation and the texturing formation of melt-spun Nd--Fe--B alloys probably involve grain boundary sliding and grain rotation, the solution-precipitation process and preferential growth of Nd$_{2}$Fe$_{14}$B nanograins along the easy growth $a$-axis.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
