  • the metal part 200 of this embodiment is mainly composed of Fe.
  • the metal part 200 has a crystalline phase. More specifically, the metal part 200 has nanocrystals. These nanocrystals are generated by heat treating the magnetic powder 100 as described below.

This is preferable because the magnetic powder 100 is less likely to become magnetically saturated.
  • the specific particles 400 of this embodiment have a particle size of 3 to 70 nm. Furthermore, if the particle size of the specific particles 400 is too small, the magnetic coupling between the particles 110 cannot be suppressed. For this reason, it is preferable that the specific particles 400 have a particle size of 5 nm or more. Cu, which is the main component of the specific particles 400, is conductive. Therefore, if the particle size of the specific particles 400 is too large, eddy currents tend to flow in the specific particles 400 due to the AC magnetic field, increasing eddy current loss.

  • the Fe element is the main element and is an essential element responsible for magnetism.
  • the higher the Fe ratio the higher the magnetic flux density Bs and the lower the raw material price. Furthermore, if the Fe ratio falls below 75.4 at%, Tx1 (described later) becomes higher and ⁇ T (described later) becomes smaller. This makes it difficult to heat treat the magnetic powder 100, and the magnetic properties after heat treatment deteriorate. Furthermore, if the Fe ratio exceeds 86.4 at%, the amorphousness decreases significantly and the soft magnetic properties deteriorate.
  • the crystallinity of the magnetic powder 100 is suppressed to improve the amorphousness, and the soft magnetic properties of the magnetic powder 100 after heat treatment are improved, so the Fe ratio is more preferably in the range of 77.9 to 84.9 at%.
  • the Si element is the element responsible for forming the amorphous phase.
  • ⁇ T described later
  • the proportion of Si exceeds 9 at%, the amorphous forming ability decreases, and it becomes impossible to obtain a magnetic powder 100 having an amorphous phase as the main phase, so the proportion of Si is preferably 9 at% or less.
  • the B element is an essential element responsible for forming the amorphous phase. If the proportion of B falls below 4 at%, it becomes difficult to form an amorphous phase by rapid cooling when producing the magnetic powder 100, and good magnetic properties cannot be obtained. Furthermore, if the proportion of B exceeds 13 at%, the melting point becomes high, which is unfavorable for manufacturing, and the ability to form an amorphous phase also decreases. For this reason, the proportion of B is preferably in the range of 4 to 13 at%.
  • the P element is an essential element responsible for forming the amorphous phase.
  • P has a high affinity with Cu, and can efficiently form specific particles 400 near the surface of the particle 110.
  • the proportion of P exceeds 12 at%, the balance with other metalloid elements becomes poor, and the ability to form an amorphous phase decreases.
  • the proportion of P exceeds 12 at%, the saturation magnetic flux density Bs decreases significantly.
  • the proportion of P falls below 3 at%, the crystal grains tend to become large, and good magnetic properties cannot be obtained. For this reason, the proportion of P is preferably in the range of 3 to 12 at%.
  • the Cu element is an essential element that contributes to the formation of the nanocrystalline phase. If the Cu ratio is below 0.3 at%, there is little cluster precipitation during heat treatment, making uniform nanocrystallization difficult. If the Cu ratio exceeds 1.0 at%, the amorphous forming ability decreases and the occupancy rate of the specific particles 400 becomes too large. For this reason, it is preferable that the Cu ratio is in the range of 0.3 to 1.0 at%. In particular, in order to improve the amorphous nature of the magnetic powder 100 and enable uniform nanocrystallization, and to make the size and occupancy rate of the specific particles 400 appropriate and to improve the soft magnetic properties after heat treatment, it is more preferable that the Cu ratio is 0.7 at% or less.
  • the proportion of M is 0 at% or more and 5 at% or less.
  • M is Cr and/or Nb.
  • the inclusion of Cr in the magnetic powder 100 of this embodiment makes it easier for an oxide film 300 to form on the surface of the particles 110 of the magnetic powder 100, improving corrosion resistance. Furthermore, the inclusion of Nb in the magnetic powder 100 of this embodiment inhibits the growth of bccFe ( ⁇ Fe) crystal grains during nanocrystallization, making it easier to form a fine nanocrystalline structure. However, the inclusion of Cr and Nb relatively reduces the proportion of Fe in the magnetic powder 100, so that the saturation magnetic flux density Bs of the magnetic powder 100 decreases, and the ability of the magnetic powder 100 to form an amorphous phase also decreases. Therefore, the proportion of M in the magnetic powder 100 needs to be 5 at% or less.
  • the magnetic powder 100 according to this embodiment is preferably one in which 3 at% or less of Fe is replaced with one or more elements selected from Co, Ni, Zn, Zr, Hf, Mo, Ta, W, Ag, Au, Pd, Na, K, Ca, Mg, Sn, Ti, V, Mn, Al, S, C, O, N, Bi and rare earth elements.
  • This makes it possible to easily precipitate uniform nanocrystals in the magnetic powder 100 when the magnetic powder 100 is heat-treated, and also makes it possible to keep the adverse effects of the above elements in the magnetic powder 100 on the magnetic properties, etc., within an acceptable range.

  • the magnetic powder 100 produced in this manner has a non-crystalline phase (amorphous phase) as the main phase and is composed of a plurality of particles 110 that are approximately spherical.
  • the present invention is not limited to this, and the magnetic powder 100 may be composed of flakes formed by crushing an amorphous ribbon. In other words, the particles 110 that constitute the magnetic powder 100 of the present invention do not have to be approximately spherical.
