`
`3.1 Soft Magnetic Materials:
`General Information
`3.1.1 Properties and Classification
`Commonly,. ferromagnetic. or. ferrimagnetic. materials.
`are. considered. as. magnetic. materials. although. other.
`materials.(diamagnetic.and.paramagnetic).also.exhibit.
`some.magnetic.properties,.as.discussed.earlier..The.mag-
`netic.materials.can.be.further.classified.into.two.clearly.
`separate. categories:. soft. magnetic. materials. and. hard.
`magnetic.materials..Coercivity.is.assumed.as.the.main.
`criterion,.and.IEC.Standard.404-1.recommends.the.coer-
`civity.of.1000.A/m.as.a.value.to.distinguish.both.groups..
`This.border.is.rather.symbolic.because.both.classes.are.
`completely.different..From.soft.magnetic.materials,.we.
`require.the.coercivity.to.be.as.small.as.possible.(usually.
`much.less.than.100.A/m).while.hard.magnetic.materials.
`should. have. coercivity. as. high. as. possible. (commonly.
`above. 100,000.A/m).. There. is. also. a. subclass. of. hard.
`magnetic. materials. called. semi-hard. magnetic. materi-
`als. (with. coercivity. between. 1,000. and. 100,000.A/m)..
`Figure 3.1. presents. magnetic. materials. taking. into.
`account. their. coercivity. available. Vacuumschemlze.
`who.is.one.of.the.main.manufacturers.
`Soft. magnetic. materials. cover. huge. market. of. vari-
`ous. products:. about. 7.×.106. tons. annually. and. about.
`1010. Euro. (Moses. 2003).. We. can. divide. these. products.
`taking.onto.account.their.magnetic.performance,.appli-
`cations,.cost,.and.other.properties..For.example,.grain-
`oriented.silicon.steel.is.mechanically.much.harder.than.
`the. nonoriented,. so. the. same. punching. die. will. wear.
`off.after.producing.smaller.quantity.of.elements..Even.
`in.the.case.of.SiFe.electrical.steel,.the.best.grade.can.be.
`10.times.more.expensive.than.ordinary.grades.of.steel..
`And.between.cheep.ferrites.and.high-quality.soft.mag-
`netic. materials,. these. differences. in. cost. can. be. much.
`larger.
`Therefore,.selection.of.appropriate.kind.and.quality.of.
`material.for.a.given.application.is.an.important.knowl-
`edge.. For. example,. the. best. quality. steel. after. prepa-
`ration. of. the. product. can. be. much. more. deteriorated.
`than. cheaper. material. that. after. the. same. technology.
`can. exhibit. better. performance. (Schneider. et. al.. 1998,.
`Schoppa.et.al..2000,.Wilczynski.et.al..2004)..Figure.3.2.
`
`presents.a.comparison.of.the.main.parameters.of.typical.
`soft.magnetic.materials.including.their.cost.
`It.would.be.nice.to.be.able.to.find.the.soft.magnetic.
`material.with.all.excellent.properties.(high.saturation.
`polarization,.small.losses,.small.coercivity,.small.mag-
`netostriction,.good.mechanical.properties,.etc.).even.at.
`much.higher.price..But.such.material.simply.does.not.
`exist..We.have.to.accept.always.some.compromises—
`high.permeability.at.the.cost.of.saturation.polarization.
`(Figure.3.3),.small.power.loss.at.the.cost.of.saturation.
`polarization,. better. magnetic. parameters. at. the. cost.
`of. mechanical. properties,. etc.. Fortunately,. there. is. a.
`plethora. of. various. magnetic. materials. and. appro-
`priate. technology. often. helps. to. find. desirable. mate-
`rial.(Fish.1990,.Moses.1990,.1992,.2003,.Pfützner.1992,.
`Arai. and. Ishiyama. 1994,. McCurrie. 1994,. Kronmüller.
`1995,.Stodolny.1995,.Fiorillo.1996,.Schneider.et.al..1998,.
`Goldman. 1999,. O’Handley. 2000,. Beckley. 2000,. 2002,.
`Geoffroy. and. Porteseil. 2005,. Peuzin. 2005,. Degauque.
`et. al.. 2006,. De. Wulf. 2006,. Lebourgeois. and. Guyot.
`2006,. Waecklerle. 2006,. Waeckerle. and. Alves. 2006a,b,.
`Kazimierczuk.2009).
`Taking. into. account. the. main. applications. of. soft.
`magnetic.materials,.it.should.be.noted.that.this.situation.
`continues. to. change. and. develop.. For. example,. it. was.
`traditionally.assumed.that.the.main.area.of.application.
`of. silicon. steel. is. electric. power. industry.. But. recently,.
`more. and. more. power. electric. and. power. electronics.
`devices. use. higher. frequency. signals,. up. to. MHz.. In.
`high. frequency. range,. electrical. steel. exhibits. prohibi-
`tively. high. power. loss. and. should. be. substituted. by.
`nanocrystalline.and.even.ferrite.materials.(Figure 3.4)..
`Consequently,. in. such. applications,. other. accompa-
`nying. devices,. for. example,. measuring. transformers,.
`should.be.also.made.from.high-frequency.materials..In.
`turn,.the.progress.in.nanocrystalline/amorphous.mate-
`rials.resulted.in.development.of.new.classical.electrical.
`steel.(e.g.,.thinner.gauge.of.even.0.15.mm).
`Taking.into.account.the.importance.of.various.groups.
`of. soft. magnetic. materials,. it. should. be. noted. that.
`almost.80%.of.the.market.is.occupied.by.SiFe.electrical.
`steel.(Figure.3.5)..With.ferrites.and.permalloys.(NIFe),.it.
`is.more.than.95%.and.we.can.see.that.other.materials,.
`including.amorphous.and.nanocrystalline.are.marginal.
`in.value.

`
`If. a. material. is. used. for. magnetic. shielding,. then. its.
`losses.are.not.as.important.as.the.permeability,.and.hence.
`amorphous. materials. or. permalloy. is. advisable.. In. the.
`case.of.high-frequency.applications,.apart.from.the.losses,.
`deterioration. of. magnetic. properties. (e.g.,. permeability).
`with.frequency.is.important,.so.from.Table.3.1.we.can.see.
`that,.in.this.case,.the.materials.would.be.ordered.as.fol-
`lows:.SiFe,.NiFe,.amorphous/nanocrystalline,.MnZn.fer-
`rite,.NiZn.ferrite.(and.in.microwave.range,.garnets).

`
`Both. problems—expensive. manufacturing. and. lim-
`ited. frequency. application—can. be. solved. if. we. use.
`the.same.material.in.form.of.a.powder.iron..This.mate-
`rial.is.manufactured.by.grinding.iron.(or.iron.alloys*).
`into.powder.with.dimension.of.particles.5–200.μm.and.
`next.by.pressing.this.powder.with.insulating.material..
`Resistivity.of.such.material.is.of.the.order.of.ρ.=.104.μΩ.

`to.100.kHz.(specially.prepared.NiFe.powder.to.100.MHz).
`(Kazimierczuk.2009).
`Instead. of. cheap. pressing,. most. often. sintering.
`.technology. is. used,. which. results. in. better. magnetic.
`performances.of.the.powder.materials.(Table.3.3).
`As.a.material.for.powder.iron.cores,.most.commonly,.
`carbonyl. iron. is. used.. Technology. of. obtaining. extra.
`pure. iron. powder. from. iron. pentacarbonyl,. Fe(CO)5,.
`was.developed.in.1925.by.BASF.Company..By.thermal.
`
`decomposition. of. iron. pentacarbonyl,. it. is. possible. to.
`produce. 99.8%. pure. iron. powder. with. spherical. parti-
`cles.ranging.from.1.to.8.μm.
`Although. the. presence. of. carbon. significantly. dete-
`riorate. magnetic. properties. of. iron. (Figures. 3.6. and.
`3.7),.low-carbon.steel.is.widely.used.as.magnetic.mate-
`rial. mainly. due. to. its. low. price. (Figure. 3.6). and. good.

`P,.0.05%–0.15%;.Mn,.0.35%–0.8%;.S,.0.006%–0.025%;.and.

`addition.of.Si.and.Goss.texture..The.first.invention.was.
`proposed.by.Robert.Hadfield.in.1902.(Barret.et.al..1902).
`and.patented.in.1903.(Hadfield.1903)..The.second.inven-
`tion.was.patented.by.Norman.Goss.in.1934.(Goss.1934).
`and.described.in.1935.(Goss.1935).
`As.discussed.earlier,.one.of.the.most.important.draw-
`backs. of. pure. iron. is. its. relatively. low. resistivity. and.
`hence.large.eddy.current.loss..Figure.3.10.presents.the.
`resistivity.of.different.iron.alloys..We.can.see.that.good.
`candidates. for. resistivity. improvement. are. silicon. and.
`aluminum.. Addition. of. silicon. influences. also. satura-
`tion.polarization.and.Curie.temperature.(both.of.which.
`decrease.with.silicon.content;.see.Figure.3.11).
`From.Figure.3.11,.the.best.would.be.6.5%.content.of.Si.
`because. resistivity. increases. almost. sevenfold. and. the.
`material. is. non-magnetostrictive.. Unfortunately,. this.
`material. is. very. hard. and. brittle,. what. is. disadvanta-
`geous.in.rolling.process.as.well.as.in.punching.the.final.
`product..In.practice,.punching.can.be.carried.out.only.
`for. the. steel. with. up. to. 3%–4%. silicon. content.. Large.
`content.of.Si.causes.also.decrease.of.saturation.polariza-
`tion.as.well.as.the.permeability..Therefore,.the.GO.sili-
`con.steel.is.manufactured.mostly.often.with.2.7%–3.3%.
`of.silicon.although.also.6.5%.SiFe.is.offered.in.the.mar-
`ket.(in.small.volume.and.for.higher.price).
`Figure.3.12.presents.part.of.a.phase.diagram.of.iron–
`silicon..The.transition.between.α-Fe.and.γ-Fe.is.at.911°C..
`For.silicon.content.higher.than.1.86%,.this.transition.no.

`direction. (Figure. 2.14).. Therefore,. the. main. effort. is.
`made. to. obtain. the. best. Goss. texture. with. relatively.
`large.grains.ordered.in.one.direction..Figure.3.15.pres-
`ents. dependence. of. flux. density. and. loss. on. the. tilt.
`angle.. Surprisingly,. the. minimum. of. the. loss. occurs.
`when.the.grain.are.slightly.misoriented.from.the.per-
`fect. .direction.. The. best. results. are. obtained. for. the.
`grain.orientation.of.about.2°.
`The.data.from.Figure.3.15.can.be.partially.explained.
`by.results.of.domain.investigations.presented.in.Figures.
`3.16. and. 3.17.. Perfectly. oriented. grains. (0°). have. wider.
`spacing.of.the.180°.domain.walls.than.for.a.tilt.angle.2°..
`This.domain.width.strongly.influences.excess.loss.(see.
`Figure. 2.118).. The. domain. wall. spacing. can. be. signifi-
`cantly.decreased.by.applying.a.stress,.which.is.one.of.
`the.methods.known.as.a.domain.refinement.
`After.the.first.annealing.in.production.process.(Figure.
`3.13),. the. grain. dimensions. are. only. around. 0.02.mm..
`After. second. annealing. (secondary. recrystallization),.
`the.Goss-oriented.grains.grow.through.the.thickness.of.
`the.sheet.to.diameter.3–7.mm.with.average.misorienta-
`tion.of.around.6°.
`Theoretically,.as.larger.grains.as.better,.but.measure-
`ments.of.loss.versus.grain.dimensions.did.not.confirm.
`such. a. simple. relationship.. Indeed. domain. observa-
`tions. confirm. that. large. grains. have. a. wide. domain.
`spacing. (Beckley. 2000).. This. is. why. usually. grain.
`diameter. in. conventional. GO. steel. does. not. exceed.
`about.8.mm.
`Excellent.properties.along.rolling.direction.are.advan-
`tageous.when.we.can.guarantee.that.magnetization.is.
`applied. only. in. this. direction.. But. this. advantage. can.
`be.a.problem.when.a.part.is.magnetized.not.exactly.in.
`the. rolling. direction. (e.g.,. corners. of. a. square. core).. In.

`
`*. Unfortunately. different. countries. often. use. different. standards:.
`ASTM. A876M. (American. Society. for. Testing. and. Materials),.
`JIS. C2553. (Japanese. Industrial. Standard),. AISI. classification.
`(American. Iron. and. Steel. Institute),. IEC. 60404-8-7. (International.
`Electrotechnical. Commission).. But. all. standards. of. classifica-

`of. material.. For. example,. Japanese Standard. classify. GO. steel. as:.
`Z,. normal;. ZH,. HiB. steel;. ZDKH,. with. laser. domain. refinement..
`For. example,. 30ZH100. means. HiB. steel. of. thickness. 0.3.mm. and.
