Waste　sintered　Nd-Fe-B　permanent　magnets　were　recycled　via　doping　(Nd20Dy80)(76)Co20Cu3Fe1　special　alloy　(SA)　powders.　The　effect　of　the　SA　on　the　microstructure　and　magnetic　properties　of　the　recycled　magnets　has　been　studied.　The　SA　additives　between　0.0　and　2.0　wt%　have　little　effect　on　the　remanence　(B-r)　of　the　recycled　magnet.　When　the　additive　content　is　more　than　2.0　wt%,　the　remanence　(B-r)　begins　to　decrease.　The　coercivity　of　recycled　magnet　increases　gradually　as　the　SA　additive　increases.　Compared　with　the　properties　of　the　original　waste　sintered　magnet,　a　magnet　recycled　with　2.0　wt%　SA　recovers　97.5%,　92.4%,　and　93.1%　of　B-r,　H-cj　and　(BH)(max),　respectively.　The　volume　fraction　of　the　Nd-rich　phase　reaches　a　maximum　of　7.4　vol%　for　2.0　wt%　SA,　which　is　nearly　equal　to　that　of　the　original　waste　magnet.　The　average　grain　size　of　all　the　recycled　magnets　is　larger　than　that　of　the　original　waste　magnet.　It　is　our　conclusion　that　currently　2.0　wt%　SA　additive　is　the　best　content　for　recovering　the　properties　of　the　waste　magnets.
