Application-specific magnetic properties tern by controlled heat treatment with and without a magnetic field. For most applications, the variation of induction B and toroidal tape-wound cores of induction B is of interest.

Examples for the Hc < A/m. alloy conditions F15, F25 and F50 are shown in Figures 9 to Besides Magnifer 7904, the variant Magnifer 7904 hMo is 11. For special applications, the shape of the hysteresis loop used, especially for very demanding requirements. can be adapted to lie between those of F15 and F50. The magnetic properties of Magnifer 7904 depend on the Magnifer 7904 TK.
