AI discovers new rare-earth-free magnet at 200 times the speed of man
As some entities identify new (or at least overlooked) sources to meet the growing demand for rare earth materials, others are looking toward new tools. UK deep-tech company Materials Nexus announced on Tuesday that it has designed a new rare-earth-free permanent magnet with the help of its AI…
It says the AI-driven discovery and development process was 200 times faster than the resource-intensive manual route, bringing new hope to an electrifying world with a growing appetite for powerful magnets. The AI analyzed more than 100 million rare-earth-free material compositions before it landed on MagNex, factoring in variables such as cost, supply chain security, performance and environmental impact. "I look forward to seeing the role it will play in supporting market demand for the creation of novel materials to help address increasingly pressing supply chain and environmental issues."
