✔ Magnetic Properties
High Permeability (μ): 50–120 (depends on composition & compaction).
Low Coercivity (Hc): <10 A/m → Reduced energy loss in alternating fields.
Saturation Magnetization (Bs): ~1.0–1.2 T (suitable for medium-power applications).
✔ Electrical & Thermal Performance
Low Core Loss (Pcv): Excellent for high-frequency (kHz–MHz) applications.
Good Thermal Stability: Maintains properties up to ~500°C.
High Resistivity (~80–150 μΩ·cm): Reduces eddy current losses.
✔ Mechanical & Chemical Properties
Soft & Ductile – Easily pressed into complex shapes.
Corrosion-Resistant – Forms a passive oxide layer (better than pure iron powder).
Lightweight (Density ~6.6 g/cm³) – Lighter than ferrites.
✔ Powder Characteristics (for Compaction & Sintering)
Particle Size: Typically 5–100 μm (adjustable for different applications).
Morphology: Irregular or spherical (depending on atomization method).
Binders Used: Epoxy, silicone, or phenolic resins for improved mechanical strength.
