Abstract:
The properties and microstructure of Fe
73.5Nb
3Cu
1Si
13.5B
9 new ultrafine crystalline soft magnetic alloy have been investigated.The results have been shown that the alloy is combined with high relative initial permeability of
μ(0.08A·m)=14.8×10
4. low coercivity of
Hc=0.6A/m. high saturation magnetic flux density of
B800A·m,=1.22 T under the optimum performance with annealing at 535℃, the optimum values of core loss have reached
P5·10k=5.6W/kg,
P5·20k=17.4W/kg,
P5·50k=80W/kg.
P5·100k=270W/kg. The alloy has high effective permeability μ'
1 in a considerable wide frequency range. The microstructural analysis under X-ray diffraction was detemined that the main crystalline phase in the alloy is
xFe-Si solid solution which has ultrafine grain size of
d=1 1nm. lattice parameter of a
a0=0.2 837nm.
