Rare Earth Metals -12 Things You Didn’t Know

Image
Rare Earth Metals have become very important to our high-tech economy in recent years. Many new uses have been found for rare earths and they are found both in everyday applications like mobile phones and computers and very special technologies, like anti-counterfeiting. They occupy that strange part at the bottom of the Periodic Table that looks almost like a footnote. It’s the part with the longest, most unpronounceable names of elements that you probably ignored when you were in science class..

Understanding Coercivity?

Image
Comparison of Small Coercive Force of Soft Ferromagnetic Materials with the Large Coercive Force of Hard Ferromagnetic Materials What is Coercivity? What is Coercivity? When we apply an outside magnetic field to a magnetic material, we are forcing it -coercing it- to become magnetized. how much of an applied field is required to demagnetize the material?

Apple unveils 'Daisy' iPhone recycling robot for Earth Day

Image
“Daisy,” the robot builds on a previous generation of technology called Liam, which Apple developed to deconstruct iPhones and strip out components to reuse for other purposes — and not necessarily just for new electronic gadgets. She’s featured on the cover of Apple’s 2018 environmental progress report and can handle nine types of iPhones.

Understanding Remanence

Image
Definition of  Magnetic Remanence Remanence is the remaining magnetic field found in the material after the applied magnetic field is reduced to zero.  Remanence is derived from the same word as "remainder" or "remaining" so we can think of Remanence as the magnetic field that remains in the material after the outside magnetic field has been released.

Understanding Magnetic Permeability

Image
Understanding Magnetic Permeability Magnetic Permeability is a value that expresses how a magnetic material responds to an applied magnetic field.  If a material's internal dipoles become easily oriented to an applied magnetic field, that material is regarded as being a high-permeability material.  If the material's internal dipoles do not become easily oriented to an applied magnetic field, it is a low-permeability magnetic material.

The Hysteresis Loop Explained - Understanding Hysteresis and BH Curves

Hysteresis is based on a Greek word that means lagging. So Magnetic Hysteresis is all about how a material's magnetic properties lag behind the force that creates those properties.  The hysteresis curve tells us a lot about a material's response to a magnetic field, so if we know how to interpret it, we will know and understand a lot about the material's response to magnetic input.
