Abstract
The concentration dependence of magnetic properties of iron alloys with 3–25% of gallium is studied. It was shown that the saturation induction monotonically decreases with increasing gallium content, while the coercivity exhibits a step increase with a step from 85 to 135 A/m between 12 and 15 at % Ga. The effect of magnetic field annealing (MFA) on the behavior of the residual induction and coercive force in alloy samples containing from 3 to 18 at % Ga is studied. As a result of MFA, magnetic anisotropy is induced in the alloy: magnetic hysteresis loops become narrower, the residual induction increases, and the coercivity decreases. The MFA efficiency reaches a maximum at a Ga content of 15–18 at %. The features of the structure state of iron–gallium alloys and their role in the formation of magnetic properties during annealing in a dc magnetic field are discussed.
