- Ferromagnetic materials exhibiting a first-order magnetic transition have a. large isothermal entrop change (AS) or adiabatie temperature change induced by a pseudo-static magnetic field. This is known as the magnetocatoric effect.
- AS isothermal entrop change
- adiabatie temperature change induced by a pseudo-static magnetic field This is known as the magnetocatoric effect.
- the inventors have determined that these materials can be particularly useful in heating applications, and irreversible heating power of these materials can be enhanced dramatically by exposure to alternating magnetic fields.
- These ferromagnetic materials can be particularly advantageous for use in medical treatment, such as hyperthermia treatment, al though they can have applications in other fields where heating is desired, such as a heat assisted forward osmosis water desalination technology.
- Fig. .1 shows schematically the relationship between the magnetic polarisation (M) of a ferromagnetic material and a statically applied magnetic field (H).
- the magnetic polarisation shows a tendency to increase with increasing applied magnetic field; however, the M value is saturated at H - 3 ⁇ 4 the anisotropy field.
- the reverse magnetic field to depolarise the magnetisation from. M, to zer is defined by the coercivity (HJ.
- the coercivity is. known to be highly dependent on the grain size in the nanoscale regime because the magnetic correlation length of material ' s is usually between 10 and 100 nm.
- the M-H curve of superparamagnetic material does not exhibit any hysteresis beha viour under a static magnetisation process.
- the primary cause of the heating effect in superparamagnetic particles is the relaxation behaviour of the magnetisation direction in particles which result in a certain phase shift between the alternating l!ai ⁇ ⁇ ( ⁇ ) signals,
- embodiments of the present disclosure utilise a ferromagnetic material to which an alternating magnetic field is applied. While a loss mechanism as described above with reference to Fig. 1 is therefore applicable, it is not the onl loss mechanism. Since magnetisation polarisation is induced by the change in the magnetic domain configurations which is -time dependent, the response of the magnetic polarisation, to external alternating magnetic field shows a finite time delay due to the domain relaxation process. This delay causes a certain phase shift between Hit) and ⁇ ⁇ ( ⁇ ) which C be described b a complex magnetic permeability ; the power lass is related to the imaginary part of the permeability.
- the area inside the M-H loop under an alternating magnetic field is far larger than under a static field.
- This effect is significant at high frequencies and the power loss per cycle can be enhanced by 2 order of magnitude in the kHz range in some soft magnetic materials, for example. Heating power of magnetic materials may therefore be enhanced dramatically by increasin the dri ving frequency.
- ferromagnetic materials allow for self-controlled heating.
- ferromagnetic materials can self-regulate heating power closer to the Curie temperature (7c). This offers a considerable advantage over heating by superparamagnetic particles with which the temperature is controlled by adjusting the applied field strength.
- ferromagnetic material is represented in Fig, 2, in which the temperature dependence of the spontaneous magnetisation- of the ferromagnetic material is shown schematically.
- the spon taneous magnetisation (M s ) is given by the vector sum of the atomic magnetic moment
- Target' heating power can. be realised at desired temperatures, e.g.
- ferromagnetic materials according to the present disclosure exhibiting first-order magnetic transition, have a temperature dependence for M s near T that does not follow the Brilloum function.
- One example of such ferromagnetic material according to the present disclosure is a La(Fe,Si)i;? compound.
- Fig, 3 shows schematically the temperature dependence of M s for a ferromagnetic material with the first-order magnetic transition at T .
- both ferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases may coexist in the 1 st order materials near Tc (Fig. 3) and the abrupt decrease of M s is governed by the nucleation-and-growth process of the paramagnetic phase in the ferromagnetic matrix rather than the molecular field in the ferromagnetic phase.
- the decrease in the spontaneous magnetisation near T can be very abrupt.
- La(Fe,Si) ' i3 has a very steep change of M s due to the presence of such a first-order magnetic transition.
- ferromagnetic materials exhibiting first-order magnetic transition can offer considerable advantages ' as a medium for self-controlled isothermal heating, e.g. for use in medical treatment, and have determined that considerable benefits can be achieved through the application of an altern ting magnetic field to the ferromagnetic material to induce heating.
- a melt-spun La-Fe-Si based sample was prepared and tuned by hydragenation. such that it had a T value of 46.1°C (The La-Fe-Si compound had the formula LaFe-n «7811. 3-111 , 75 in this instance.) p of 46. C was. calculated through measurement of magnetisation over a range of temperatures, as shown in the inset of Fig. 4.
- M-H curves of a rate of 1.6 x 1.0 "3 K s, at different measurement temperatures, are shown in Fig. 10.
- the 1 st order magnetic transition is reflected in .the shape of the M-H. curves.
- Fig. 4 also shows the static hysteresis loss for the ferromagnetic material, over a temperature measurement range including and extending beyond the range shown, in. Fig. 1.0.
- the hysteresis loss shows a tendency to decrease gradually as temperature increases towards ?c because both the spontaneous magnetisation and the intrinsic coereivity normally have negative temperature dependence.
- the hysteresis loss of the sample exhibited an increase in a temperature range of between 42 and 46°C as indicated above and a particularly dramatic increase (by about 800 ) in a very narrow temperature range of between 44 and 46 6 C
- This anomalous behaviour had not previously been recognised and the inventors recognised that the dramatic ' increase of the hysteresis loss indicated that the heating power of this first-order ferromagnetic material could be even greater unde the application of alternating magnetic field, in. consideration of higher dynamic loss that would be induced.
