About this Digital Document
The properties of permanent magnet alloys are of interest metallurgically because they depend upon a transformation in a solid solution. It can be shown, for all practical purposes, that these properties can be reduced to the variation of a single quantity, internal strain. Therefore, in describing the various permanent magnet materials, they are generally classified in accordance with the manner in which the internal strain is introduced. The oldest permanent magnets are those belonging to the class known as martensitic steels. These magnets are magnetically strong and mechanically hard because of the martensitic structure developed when these steels are quenched. A more recent group of permanent magnet alloys depend upon the precipitation of a second phase or an order-disorder transformation in a solid solution for good magnetic properties.
