Abstract

In this paper highly oriented magneto-polymer composites have been obtained by means of Co and Fe-rich glass-coated amorphous microwires with various metal nucleus and outer diameters. The microwire segments with length L ~ 0.5–0.6 cm were oriented in the magnesium alloy matrix and were poured with a liquid polymer whose composition was a mixture of methyl methacrylate methacrylic acid and methacrylate copolymers in a ratio of 37/63% by mass. The magneto-polymer composites obtained possess high electric resistance, chemical stability and mechanical strength. The high average saturation magnetizations, <Ms> = 20–30 emu/cm3, have been obtained for Co and Fe based composites with the volume fraction of the magnetic material in the polymer matrix within the range 0.02–0.05. Both Co and Fe based composites show highly anisotropic magnetic properties. The magneto-polymer samples can be cut into pieces of arbitrary size and shape. This facilitates their use in various technical applications.
