Fine Iron Powder
Morphologically controlled spherical fine iron powder — the foundational matrix material for Soft Magnetic Composites (SMC) and Metal Injection Molding (MIM), formulated for maximum packing density, superior flowability and exceptional electromagnetic response.
- Materials
- Spherical fine iron powder (purity up to > 99.5%)
- Features
- Wide D50 range 1.0–25 μm, ultra-low core loss, superior flowability and packing density, strict oxygen & carbon control
- Application
- SMC toroidal inductor cores, high-current chokes and transformers; MIM micro-components (hinges, brackets); automotive sensors and actuators.
