The dependence of permeability and grain size on annealing temperature was investigated, and a corresponding model was proposed. A surprising phenomenon wherein the grain size first decreases and then increases with increasing annealing temperature was analysed and explained by using this model. Moreover, it was also found that excellent soft magnetic properties were obtained when annealed at temperature near 0·6 times that of the melting point. Theoretical analysis results are in excellent agreement with experiments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
