Mesomechanical Response of a Soft Magnetic Elastomer to AC Magnetization

Wet mechanical alloying (MA) were used to prepare amorphous soft magnetic Fe75Si20B5 (at.%) powders starting from elemental powders of Fe, Si and B. The structural, morphological and magnetic properties of the powders were investigated. It was found that wet MA leads to the amorphisation of the alloy after 40 hours of wet milling using benzene (C6H6) as process control agent (PCA). The influence of the wet MA process on the saturation magnetization of the powders was investigated. Amorphous powder of Fe75Si20B5 (at.%) obtained by wet MA route was used to prepare compacts by spark plasma sintering (SPS). The chosen sintering temperature was 800, 850 and 900 oC. Toroidal samples of Fe75Si20B5 (at.%) were investigated in DC and AC magnetization regime and their magnetic properties were correlated with sintering parameters, compacts density and phases evolution during sintering.

Abstract The compensation ferrometer is an instrument for the measurement of open specimen soft magnetic materials parameters at AC magnetization based on the magnetomotive force compensation method. New magnetizing process regulator that controls voltage induced in measuring winding (magnetic flux density waveform) and the voltage induced across Rogowski-Chattock potentiometer (compensation) was developed recently. This paper deals with a new compensation ferrometer design that allows taking the full advantage of the new regulator. New ferrometer based on STEMlab platform improves precision and speed of the measurement.

Iron-base alloys containing 8-11 wt.% Si, 4-8 wt.% Al, known as “Sendust” alloys, show excellent soft magnetic properties. These magnetic properties are strongly dependent on heat treatment conditions, especially on the quenching temperature following annealing. But little has been known about the microstructure and the Fe-Si-Al ternary phase diagram has not been established. In the present investigation, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has been used to study the microstructure in a Sendust alloy as a function of temperature.An Fe-9.34 wt.% Si-5.34 wt.% Al (approximately Fe3Si0.6Al0.4) alloy was prepared by vacuum induction melting, and homogenized at 1,200°C for 5 hrs. Specimens were heat-treated in a vertical tube furnace in air, and the temperature was controlled to an accuracy of ±2°C. Thin foils for TEM observation were prepared by jet polishing using a mixture of perchloric acid 15% and acetic acid 85% at 10V and ∼13°C. Electron microscopy was performed using a Philips EM 301 microscope.
