Stainless steel and titanium alloys are common materials for orthopaedic implants. However there is a lack of information and studies on magnetic remanence of  implants used in clinical practice. The aims of this study are to investigate the composition and the presence of magnetic remanence for these two orthopaedic implant materials. These two factors may cause implant instability and heat problems as well as degradation of the images quality if the patients undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination. The magnetic hysteresis loop and remanence status of stainless steel and titanium alloy orthopaedic implants were investigated with a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). Both samples of stainless steel and titanium alloy had been exposed to external magnetic fields up to 1 T (10000 G) and 1.4 T (14000 G), respectively. The compositions of these two orthopaedic implant materials were studied using a scanning electron microscope with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM-EDX). The results of the study demonstrated that ferrous and nickel compositions in stainless steel alloy orthopaedic implants contributed to the residual magnetism, as shown in the hysteresis loop. The titanium alloy orthopaedic implant sample does not contain any ferromagnetic elements. After exposure to a magnetic field, the stainless steel values of retentivity, coercivity and magnetisation are significantly higher compared to those of the titanium alloy. The stainless steel orthopaedic implant sample demonstrates a typical hysteresis loop that suggests the existence of magnetic remanence. In contrast, the titanium alloy orthopaedic implant sample showed no significant remanence phenomenon. By considering the existence of magnetic remanence in the implant is important as potential effect on the MRI image quality.

We report the exchange bias properties in the bulk Ni45Co5Mn38Sn12quaternary Heusler alloy. The ferromagnetic (FM) –antiferromagnetic (AFM) interactions get reinforced after the Co substitution for Ni in the Ni-Mn-Sn alloy, which increase the exchange bias field (HE). A maximum shift in hysteresis loops of 306 Oe was observed in the 10 kOe field cooled sample. The origin of this large exchange bias field has been discussed. Magnetic hysteresis loop obtained in the zero field cooled (ZFC) mode shows double-shifted loop, and the reason of this phenomenon has been explained in detail.

The compound was prepared by sol-gel method for spontaneous combustion with certain weight ratios (x=0.0,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4,0.5,0.6,0.7,0.8,0.9), the samples were calcined at a temperature (900oC) for a period of two hours(2h), then studied its structural and magnetic properties.one of the most prominent results that we obtained from the X-ray diffraction technique (XRD) is that compound has several phases. Where the sample (NiFe2O4) appeared to be polycrystalline and the dominant phase in it is the cubic phase, while the other phase is (Hematite)(Fe2O3) A crystal structure rhomboid (Rhombohedral), in addition to these two phases, the phase with the existing quaternary structure appeared (Sr2Fe2O5) its called (Orthorhombic). The results of the magnetic properties that were obtained through the (VSM) device, and one of the most important of these properties is the magnetic hysteresis loop by analyzing the magnetic hysteresis loop at (x=0.3), where the least area of the hysteresis loop or the least width of the hysteresis loop One of the most important parameters of the magnetic properties is the saturation magnetism (μS) and its value ranges from (19.76-3.86) (emu/gr), the highest value was at (X=0.3) and its value is (19.76emu/gr) and in general its value decreases with increasing concentration of strontium. The residual magnetism (Mr) ranges between (7.45-1.58) (emu/gr), where it reached its highest value at (x=0.3) and its value is (7.45emu/gr), and generally its value decreases with increasing concentration of strontium. In addition to that, there is another parameter which is coercion or Magnetic coercivity (Hc) ranges in value (1751.104-209.26) (Oe), reaching its lowest value at (x=0.3), and then increases with increasing strontium concentration until it reaches its highest value at (x=0.9), where it reached its value is (1751.104Oe). The square rate represented by the symbol (μi) has high values. This means that there is a mutual coupling between the soft and hard magnetic phases, which was the highest value at (x=0.3) and its value is (4.93).
