HiperCo27 soft magnetic alloy
- Introduction of HiperCo27:
- Hiperco 27 alloy is an iron-cobalt-chromium soft magnetic alloy possessing the highest degree of ductility and toughness in the commercially available iron-cobalt grades of high saturation and high Curie temperature soft magnetic alloys
- Although the permeability and coercive force of Hiperco 50 alloy are somewhat better than Hiperco 27 alloy, the magnetic saturation of both alloys is nearly identical
- In addition, Hiperco 27 alloy does not exhibit the brittleness of Hiperco 50 alloy
- Application of HiperCo27:
- Hiperco 27 alloy has been used in applications requiring a combination of good mechanical toughness, good ductility and high saturation induction
- Examples have included motors, generators, pole pieces, relays and magnetic bearings
- Density:
- Hot working:
- Hiperco 27 alloy can be forged from a furnace temperature of 2150°F (1177°C)
- Time at temperature should be approximately 1 hour per inch of thickness
- Forging can be conducted down to a temperature of 1700°F (927°C). After forging, items can be air cooled
- Standard & specifications:
- Stock size of HiperCo 27 strip: thickness 0.25mm/0.40mm
