FAQ
FAQ about Iron-Nickel-Cobalt
Alloy Fine Powder.
-
What is the particle size distribution of iron-nickel-cobalt-based alloy powder?
- Our Iron-Nickel-Cobalt Alloy Fine Powders are produced by precise particle size control and have a very sharp particle size distribution with an average particle size ranging from 0.2 to 2.0μm. The average particle size can be controlled within this range as required.
-
Is alloying with elements other than iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), and cobalt (Co) also possible?
- Due to the restrictions of the wet process that we have adopted, it is possible to alloy with elements that have chemical properties similar to iron.
-
What kind of improvement is expected when used for inductors?
- Our Iron-Nickel-Cobalt Alloy Fine Powders, with their small particle size and high saturation magnetic flux density, contribute to the reduction of losses at high frequencies and the improvement of DC superposition characteristics.
