Abstract
The effects of vacuum annealing on the phase constitution and magnetic properties of various size fractions of 3 alloy compositions produced by inert-gas atomization (IGA) are examined, Annealing results in the oxidation of properitectic alpha-Fe formed during cooling of the melt , producing considerable improvement in the hard magnetic properties o f the powders largely via the removal of lower-anisotropy magnetic rev ersal regions.
