Abstract

In this paper, we have studied the effects of the thermomagnetic treatment in a transverse magnetic field (TMaT) on the permeability of the amorphous alloy Co69Fe3.7Cr3.8Si12.5B11 with such a low saturation magnetostriction (λ s 10–7) that, in the ribbons of this alloy rolled into a toroid, a sharp longitudinal magnetic texture is observed (K sq > 0.90). It has been revealed that the permeability μ4 (H = 4 mOe, f = 1 kHz) as a function of the annealing temperature or time of holding at a temperature is described by a curve with a maximum. This maximum is observed at a coefficient of the squareness of the hysteresis loop K sq,m in the range of 0.2 ≤ K sq,m ≤ 0.4. The regimes of the TMaT have been determined that provide optimum values of the permeability μ4 (15000) without a loss of the ductile state of the ribbons of this alloy. Based on the example of an iron-based alloy of composition Fe57Co31Si2.9B9.1 with λs = 35 × 10–6, it has been shown that the formation of the hysteretic magnetic properties upon the TMaT depends substantially on the magnitude of the magnetostriction and the Curie temperature of the amorphous alloys.
