Analysis of selected properties of powdered compacts
Abstract Magnetic materials are large and specific group of materials with interesting properties and useful applications. Some of them have been known for many years, but many important materials have only been discovered in recent decades. It can be expected that many newly discovered materials with specific properties will soon be used in applications in which magnetic materials have been used for a long time, but their properties will be better. The development of new magnetic materials will certainly bring the possibility of their use in such applications in which they have not been used before. This paper contains the review of the results of research focused on the study of soft magnetic ferromagnetic materials. Specifically, they are materials of chemical composition Fe19Ni81 (called Permalloy) and Fe16Ni79Mo5 (called Supermalloy). These materials were prepared in the form of powders by the technique of the mechanical milling. Subsequently, these powders were compacted with aim to prepare a compacted material of the desired shape and size with excellent magnetic properties. This research was focused on the study of the structure and magnetic properties of massive magnetic materials prepared by the compaction of the powders in order to prepare soft magnetic material with excellent properties competing with the material used so far.
