Strong Magnetic Materials

Magnetic domains in paramagnetic materials.

Strong magnetic materials.

The attractive force is about a million times weaker than the force attracting ferromagnetic materials. They get their strong magnetic properties due to the presence of magnetic domains. The resultant magnetic force is therefore zero. Soft materials with low magnetic properties such as annealed iron and steel are examples of temporary magnets.

They exhibit a strong attraction to magnetic fields and are able to retain their magnetic properties after the external field has been removed. When a strong external magnetic field is applied the permanent magnetic dipoles orient them self parallel to the applied magnetic field and give rise to a positive magnetization. Unlike paramagnetic materials the atomic moments in these materials exhibit very strong interactions. Save 5 more with subscribe save.

These interactions are produced by electronic exchange forces and result in a parallel or antiparallel alignment of atomic moments. Ferromagnetism is the basic mechanism by which certain materials such as iron form permanent magnets or are attracted to magnets in physics several different types of magnetism are distinguished.

Developed independently in 1984 by general motors and sumitomo special metals neodymium magnets are the strongest type of permanent magnet available. When these conditions are no longer present they lose their magnetic fields. Elastic materials like rubber can hold a lot of energy but are easily deformable and not strong at all. Most glassy materials are brittle.

So you ll never feel the attraction from holding a magnet to a piece of magnesium for example. Ferromagnetic materials have some unpaired electrons so their atoms have a net magnetic moment. A neodymium magnet also known as ndfeb nib or neo magnet is the most widely used type of rare earth magnet it is a permanent magnet made from an alloy of neodymium iron and boron to form the nd 2 fe 14 b tetragonal crystalline structure. They also portray low coercivity.

They become magnetic in the presence of a strong magnetic field. Ferromagnetism along with the similar effect ferrimagnetism is the strongest type and is responsible for the common phenomenon of magnetism in magnets encountered in everyday life. Strong but not particularly tough.

Like magnetically soft materials magnetically hard materials can be magnetised by a strong external magnetic field such as those generated by an electromagnet.
