  2. Alnico - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alnico

    Alnico alloys can be magnetised to produce strong magnetic fields and have a high coercivity (resistance to demagnetization), thus making strong permanent magnets. Of the more commonly available magnets, only rare-earth magnets such as neodymium and samarium-cobalt are stronger.

  3. Magnetic alloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_alloy

    Samarium–cobalt magnets are made from an alloy of samarium and cobalt, known for their high magnetic strength, excellent temperature stability and resistance to demagnetization. [4] They are often used in applications requiring powerful and stable magnets, such as in motors, aerospace, military equipment, and high-temperature environments. [5]

    Terfenol-D (terbium, dysprosium, and iron), a highly magnetostrictive alloy used in portable speakers such as the SoundBug device; Ferrocerium (cerium, iron) Neodymium magnets, another strong permanent magnet; SmCo ; used for permanent magnets in guitar pickups, headphones, satellite transponders, etc. Scandium hydride

  5. Samarium–cobalt magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samarium–cobalt_magnet

    The reduction/melt method and reduction/diffusion method are used to manufacture samarium–cobalt magnets. The reduction/melt method will be described since it is used for both SmCo 5 and Sm 2 Co 17 production. The raw materials are melted in an induction furnace filled with argon gas. The mixture is cast into a mold and cooled with water to ...

  6. Cobalt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobalt

    It is used in creating permanent magnets like Alnico magnets, known for their strong magnetic properties used in electric motors, sensors, and MRI machines. [ 181 ] [ 182 ] It is also used in production of magnetic alloys like cobalt steel , widely used in magnetic recording media such as hard disks and tapes .

  7. Ferromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferromagnetism

    One such typical material is a transition metal-metalloid alloy, made from about 80% transition metal (usually Fe, Co, or Ni) and a metalloid component (B, C, Si, P, or Al) that lowers the melting point. A relatively new class of exceptionally strong ferromagnetic materials are the rare-earth magnets.

  8. Rare-earth magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rare-earth_magnet

    Ferrofluid on glass, with a rare-earth magnet underneath. A rare-earth magnet is a strong permanent magnet made from alloys of rare-earth elements.Developed in the 1970s and 1980s, rare-earth magnets are the strongest type of permanent magnets made, producing significantly stronger magnetic fields than other types such as ferrite or alnico magnets.

  9. Superconducting magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superconducting_magnet

    An alternate operating mode used by most superconducting magnets is to short-circuit the windings with a piece of superconductor once the magnet has been energized. The windings become a closed superconducting loop, the power supply can be turned off, and persistent currents will flow for months, preserving the magnetic field.
