Abstract

This paper investigates the thermal and magnetic properties of two iron based amorphous alloys with different Fe-content: Fe89.8Ni1.5Si5.2B3C0.5 and Fe81B13Si14C2. The XRD results show that the thermal induced structural changes occur in the temperature range of 3000oC – 8500oC for the Fe89.8Ni1.5Si5.2B3C0.5 amorphous alloy. The appearance of the first crystallization peaks on DSC thermograms of Fe81B13Si4C2, amorphous alloy is perceived already at 4500C. The initial magnetization curves of the as-cast sample of the Fe89.8Ni1.5Si5.2B3C0.5 amorphous alloy, obtained at the frequencies of 50 Hz, 400 Hz and 1000 Hz show the excellent match. The maximum relative magnetic permeability for Fe89.8Ni1.5Si5.2B3C0.5 alloy sample is achieved at magnetic field strength of about 20 A/m for all frequencies, whereas the values of about 7000 were obtained at the frequencies of 50 Hz and 400 Hz. The influence of frequency on total power losses, for both alloys exhibits the increase of core losses with frequency increase. The amorphous alloy Fe89.8Ni1.5Si5.2B3C0.5 toroidal core exhibits about 3 time higher total power losses.
