Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of materials technology, and in particular relates to a method for preparing an iron-based soft magnetic composite material and the iron-based soft magnetic composite material. Background Technology

[0002] Soft magnetic materials generally refer to magnetic materials with a coercivity (Hc) below 0.8 kA / m. They play a role in energy coupling, conversion, and transfer, and are widely used in power supplies, communications, computers, and various electronic products. As the electronics industry increasingly focuses on miniaturization, high frequency, and high efficiency, soft magnetic composite materials are required to possess high frequency, low loss, and high saturation magnetic flux density. Iron-based soft magnetic composite materials offer adjustable composition and performance, achieving saturation magnetic flux densities up to 2T, and 10 7 -10 16 It has the advantages of high resistivity and a high Curie temperature of up to 770℃. Therefore, iron-based soft magnetic composite materials are currently the mainstream materials for soft magnetic materials.

[0003] Soft magnetic composite materials can be classified according to their matrix into iron-based, iron-silicon-aluminum-based, iron-silicon-chromium-based, iron-nickel-based, and ferrite-based types. Carbonyl iron powder, due to its unique onion-like structure, exhibits higher anti-saturation capabilities compared to alloy powders. Furthermore, carbonyl iron powder possesses high magnetic flux density at high and ultra-high frequencies, making it irreplaceable. However, its magnetic permeability is relatively low. Most researchers have addressed this by coating the surface of carbonyl iron powder with magnetic materials to reduce the overall decline in the magnetic properties of soft magnetic composite materials, or by alloying carbonyl iron powder with magnetic metals such as nickel to improve its magnetic properties. However, these methods still do not address the fundamental problem of the iron powder matrix itself. Summary of the Invention
