Looking for reference for the annealing schedule for Nitronic 50 which minimizes permeability. I've seen 1950F to 2050F for 1 hour in vacuum but no cooling rate is specified (I suspect rapid cooling or water quench but I can't verify this). Does anyone have know of a more definitive reference...
Does anyone have recommended sources for low volume heat treatment of soft magnetic materials that would include magnetic bias during the thermal process schedule? The objects may be up to 5 feet in length.
Does anyone know what alloys / heat treatment would be good candidates for a solenoid core that is required to have very low residual magnetism (Br), high permeability and high saturation flux density (Bm)? The form of the core will be a long thin rod. The squareness (Br/Bm) is a good...
