This invention relates to magnet cores and particularly to cores constituted by manganites.
A manganite is an oxygen compound of manganese and a second bivalent or trivalent metal. More particularly, manganites as referred to hereinafter in the specification and in the claims are compositions which have the general formulae lM Mnos and M D/Z1103 According to the invention, the magnet cores are constituted by essentially homogeneous mixed crystals of two or more of the foregoing manganites. The term mixed crystal refers to the crystalline combination or two or more such manganites which are solid solutions of the manganites having a common chemical character istic. More specifically, the mixed crystal is a new chemical compound of the individual manganite having a substantially homogeneous crystalline structure.
The mixed crystals are preferably composed in a stoichiometric ratio of two or more manganites but it is not essential that they be in exact stoichiometric ratio, and the mixed crystals may contain a slight excess or deficiency of oxygen a slight excess or deficiency of manganese, and still be satisfactory for the purposes or" the invention.
The mixed crystals of the manganites may also contain additional compounds such as ferrites, c romites, titanates and aluminates, without deting from the inventive concept.
The mixed crystals of the manganites do not all have a purely cubic crystalline structure since ratios of the axes and the axial angles of crystal system may slightly depart from se of the cubic crystal, system.
In describing the invention, particular referenoe will be made to lanthanum manganite. owever, the invention is not restricted solely to toe case where lanthanum manganite is one of the constituents of the mixed crystal. The purof describing the invention in connection with lanthanum manganite is that the perowskits structure of the mixed crystal requires a large ion at the position of the M in the crystal lattice which is furnished most conveniently by the lanthanum ion.
this connection it is to be noted that there other manganites which may have no perow- 2 praseodymium manganite and neodymium manganite.
Other manganites which are suitable for the purpose of the invention and which will be described more completely in the examples to be given later, are manganites of strontium, barium and lead, and in connection with desired mag netic properties to a lesser degree, those of calcium and cadmium, even though not all of these materials, taken individually, exhibit a perowskite structure.
However, in determining the formation of crystals having a perowskite structure, there is a definite limit for the replacement of the lanthanum in lanthanum manganite. For example, the lanthanum in lanthanum manganite may be replaced by strontium to the extent of approximately at most, and at most by 50% by barium or lead. Exceeding the limit set for the substitution by other constituents results in a crystal phase different than the perowskite phase.
Partially substituting another manganite for lanthanum manganite has the eiiect of varying the curie point of the mixed crystal manganite, the curie point being that temperature at which, for all practical purposes, the material exhibits no ferromagnetic properties, i. e., it is paramagnetic By replacing some of the lanthanum manie in the mixed crystal with strontium, barium and/or lead manganite, a curie point exceeding room temperature can be readily ob- Mixed crystals including 25 to 50 mol. per cent of strontium, barium, or lead manganite,
" respectively, and containing '75 to 49 mol. per cent of lanthanum manganite, has a curie point between 6:? and 99 C., which is above normal ambient temperatures, in which event these materials are suitable for magnet cores.
In this connection it is to be noted that various mixed crystals of manganites exhibit a curie point which is below 0 C. and consequently such materials have no ferromagnetic properties at normal ambient temperatures. A comparatively pure lanthanum manganite containing 4% of manganese which is tetravalent, has a curie point below -200 C. If the perowskite structure is retained and no second phase exists in the material, the said material may contain more than 25% manganese in tetravalent form, so that a material of the formula LaMnO3 1e5 may, for e 'nple, be obtained having a curie point in the neighbourhood of 20 C. By partly replacing the lanthanum in the lanthanum manganite by one of the bivalent metals, the curie point can be raised to a temperature above 0 C. If the lanthanum is replaced by strontium, barium and/or lead, it is possible to obtain material at ambient temperatures having an initial permeability of 106 to 200 which was measured at 4 ire/sec. and a magnetic saturation of approximately 60 gauss cm. /g.
Substitution of Al, Cr, Ti, Fe, Co or Ni, for example, for part of the Mn, generally involves a lower curie temperature. For this reason only a limited substitution of these metals is desirable.
The mixed crystals of the manganites may be prepared by reaction of a mixture of the constituent metal oxides or compounds which decompose into these oxides upon heating, or compounds which in addition to one or more of the desired metal oxides contain only volatile components. The constitution of this mixture, the reaction temperature, the partial oxygen pressure of the ambient atmosphere at the reaction temperature, and the partial oxygen pressure of the cooling atmosphere all determine the oxygen content of the mixed crystal thus formed.
The magnet cores according to the invention are produced by conventional techniques employed in the ceramic industry, the material being used in the form of powder during the sintering and cooling operations and the conditions being such as to prevent conversions adversely aiiecting the magnetic properties, such as the formation of undesirable second phases in the material. After shaping the initial mixture, the preparation of the desired mixed crystals and the sintering operation required for the manufacture of the magnet cores may alternatively be effected in one operation. Finally, the mixed crystals in question may be fabricated into magnet cores with the use of a binder.
The invention will be described in connection with the following examples which indicate several preferred embodiments of the invention.
EXAMPLE I A mixture of 130 gms. of lanthanum carbonate, 29.5 gins. of strontium carbonate and 115 gms. of manganese carbonate is sintered in air at 900 to 1000 C. for several hours. After cooling, the mixture is ground and molded into the desired shape, followed by sintering in air at a temperature between 1370 and 1 150 C. for three hours. The magnet core obtained consists of essentially homogeneous mixed crystals of 80 mol. percent lanthanum manganite and mol. percent strontium manganite. In a similar manner, mixed crystals of 70 mol. percent lanthanum manganite and mol. percent strontium manganite, of 60 mol. percent lanthanum manganite and mol. percent strontium manganite and of mol. percent lanthanum manganite and 50 mol. percent strontium manganite are produced. If the composition contains more than 40 mol. percent of M MnOs, it is desirable to use an atmosphere having a higher partial pressure of the oxygen or even pure oxygen. Several magnetic properties are stated in the following table.

In a similar manner, mixed crystals of 75 mol. percent lanthanum manganite and 25 mol. percent barium manganite, of 70 mol. percent lanthanum manganite and 30 mol. percent barium manganite and of 65 mol. percent lanthanum manganite and 35 mol. percent barium manganite are formed.
