Abstract

The understanding of the anisotropic magnetization mechanism in 3%Si steel is relevant to both the design of the electrotechnical applications of 3%Si steel and the fundamental materials science of soft magnetic materials. In the present study, the relation between the anisotropic magnetic properties and the magnetization curves of 3%Si-Fe (110) steel sheet for various directions of axial magnetization was studied taking into account the domain structure. The magnetic loss of the (110) steel sheet were measured in an applied field at an angle α to the [001] axis. The angle α was varied from 0° to 90°, in steps of 15°. In off-[001] directions, the magnetization resulted in a highly structured domain pattern and domain wall displacements, which could be related to the shape of the magnetization curves. The magnetization curves could be divided in four segments, with each segment related to a specific domain structure.
