Abstract

In this paper, FeSi6,5 (6.5 wt.% Si) soft magnetic materials have been prepared Via a Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) technique at difference sintering temperatures in the range of 1150 to 1300 °c for 15 min and a heating rate of 100 °c/min. The results show that the density of sintered samples increased with the rising sintering temperature resulted in the enhancement of Vickers hardness and magnetic properities otsintered samples. Hovvever, the highest magnetic saturation (Ms) of 209.6 emu/g and lowest coercivity (Hc) of 1.85 Oe were obtained for the SPSed sample at 1250 °c. In contrast, the sample sintered in vacuum at 1300 °c for 1h with heating rate of 20 °c/min shows the lower magnetic properties due to the lower density and high amount of pores in the structure. The results of research show that the spark plasma sintering route has a high potential of fast sintering Fe-Si soft magnetic materials and for application.
