Superior values of the initial permeability for electrodeposited Ni–Co–P-BaFe₁₂O₁₉ composite films

ABSTRACT

In this research, we detected superior values of the initial magnetic permeability for electrodeposited Ni–Co–P-M-type BaFe₁₂O₁₉ (BaM) composite films as magnetic soft–hard composites with a large amount of entrapped BaM particles. Furthermore, the initial magnetic permeability of Ni–Co–P-BaM composite films is significantly large and is comparable with corresponding values of the excellent corresponding values for permalloys, Sendust, Co-based amorphous alloys, nanocrystalline (Fe-based) and commercially sintered MnZn ferrite cores. Therefore, Ni–Co–P-BaM composite films are very attractive for magnetic devices, such as magnetic inductors, transformers, and magnetic recording heads.
