Influence of a Polymer Coating and the Compacting Pressure on the Magnetic Properties of Cobalt-Based Amorphous Alloys

Resumo

The influence of a polymer coating applied in the manufacture of magnetic shields on magnetic properties has been studied based on the example of ribbons of a cobalt-based soft magnetic alloy (Co-Fe-Ni-Cr-Mn-Si-B) with the saturation magnetostriction close to zero. The influence of polymer coating has been separated from the effect of the compacting pressure applied upon its formation. The polymer coating was formed on the ribbon in the states with different signs of the saturation magnetostriction. It has been shown that the compacting pressure and the polymer coating have opposite effects on the properties of the ribbon and that these impacts partly level off upon the formation of the coating. The degree of the influence of the polymer coating on the magnetic properties depends on the state of the ribbon and on the sign of the saturation magnetostriction in this state.
