Sr.No. | Soft Magnetic Materials | Hard Magnetic Materials |
---|---|---|
1 | Soft magnetic materials are those materials which have a smaller area enclosed by their Hysteresis loop | Hard magnetic materials are those materials which have a Larger area enclosed by their Hysteresis loop |
2 | They have low remnant magnetization | They have high remnant magnetization |
3 | They have low coercivity | They have high coercivity |
4 | They have high initial permeability | They have low initial permeability |
5 | Hysteresis loss is less | Hysteresis loss is higher |
6 | Eddy current loss is less | Eddy current loss is more for metallic types and low for ceramic types. |
7 | Used in transformer cores, motors, generators, electromagnets, etc. | Used in making permanent magnets, magnetic separators, magnetic detectors, speakers, microphones, etc. |
