Ferrite Magnets: Principles, Uses & Comparison

Table of Contents As an engineer with years of experience in magnetic materials, I often get asked a question. People want to know, “Why are ferrite magnets so common, yet so few people understand them?” Ferrite magnets are found everywhere in our lives. They are in refrigerator magnets, car motors, smartphone speakers, and substation transformers. […]

Alnico Magnets: A Rare-Earth-Free Star in the Magnetic Materials Era

In modern technological products such as smartphones, electric vehicles, and wind turbines, permanent magnetic materials are indispensable core components. Right now, most high-performance permanent magnets depend on rare earth elements. This problem is getting worse as global competition for these resources increases. In this context, a traditional magnetic material called Alnico Magnet is becoming popular again. […]

What Are Ferrite Magnets and How Do They Work

Ferrite magnets, often called ceramic magnets, are permanent magnets made from a mix of iron oxide and either barium or strontium. These magnets stand out because they are ferrimagnetic, ceramic in nature, non-conductive, and highly resistant to demagnetization. Ferrite magnets account for over 70% of the global permanent magnet market by volume, driven by their […]
