A ferromagnetic powder and process for producing it are disclosed. The process involves providing reducing a nickel-doped or nickel-coated iron compound in a reducing gas to provide a reduced metal powder including nickel in an amount of 3 to 30 atomic % based on the atomic % of iron present in the reduced metal powder, and treating the reduced metal powder with an organic metal powder. The resulting ferromagnetic metal powder has excellent stability with respect to oxidation and has a high saturation magnetization.
摘要:
Hollow metal microspheres are made by forming a liquid film of molten film forming metal composition across a coaxial blowing nozzle and applying a blowing gas at a positive pressure on the inner surface of the metal film to blow the film and form an elongated cylinder shaped liquid film of molten metal. An inert entraining fluid is directed over and around the blowing nozzle at an angle to the axis of the blowing nozzle so that the entraining fluid dynamically induces a pulsating or fluctuating pressure field at the opposite side of the blowing nozzle in the wake of the coaxial blowing nozzle. The continued movement of the entraining fluid produces asymmetric fluid drag forces on the cylinder and closes and detaches the elongated cylinder from the coaxial blowing nozzle. Surface tension forces acting on the detached cylinder form the latter into a spherical shape which is rapidly cooled and solidified by cooling means to form a hard, smooth hollow metal microsphere. A thin metal coating can be deposited on the inner wall surface of the microspheres by using a metal vapor as the blowing gas or by adding to the blowing gas small dispersed metal particles and/or gases of organometallic compounds which are decomposed. The metal microspheres can be used to make insulation materials systems and as filler materials in plastics, plastic foam compositions, rubber and rubber compositions and in metal compositions. Filamented hollow metal microspheres with a thin metal filament connecting adjacent metal microspheres are also disclosed.

摘要:
A method of manufacturing a ferromagnetic metal powder characterized by continuously drying a slurry of ferromagnetic metal powder formed by wet reduction, in a non-oxidizing gas atmosphere, and subsequently continuously heat-treating the dried ferromagnetic metal powder in a non-oxidizing gas atmosphere. The continuous method prevents the ferromagnetic metal powder from being exposed to excess oxygen to enhance the magnetic properties of the ferromagnetic metal powder. Also, the production efficiency is enhanced.
摘要:
A process for the manufacture of acicular ferromagnetic iron particles by reducing acicular iron(III) oxide hydroxides which consist of pure synthetic lepidocrocite or a mixture of synthetic goethite and at least 70% by weight of synthetic lepidocrocite.The iron(III) oxide hydroxides used carry, on their surface, an alkaline earth metal cation and an anion of a monobasic, dibasic or tribasic aliphatic carboxylic acid of up to 6 carbon atoms or an organic compound containing at least two groups capable of chelating the alkaline earth metal cation, and are produced in such a way that they consist of at least 70 percent by weight of lepidocrocite and have a length-to-width ratio of not less than 15:1.Reduction of such iron(III) oxide hydroxides gives iron particles with pronounced shape anisotropy, which exhibit both good magnetic properties and a narrow field strength distribution.
