Sintered SmCo - Samarium Cobalt

Samarium Cobalt magnets are produced in sintered as well as bonded forms. Sintered Samarium Cobalt magnets have an energy product ranging from 18 to 30 MGOe. These alloys have the highest energy products at high temperatures, very high curie temperatures, and low temperature coefficients of induction and coercivity. The content of Cobalt in these alloys is greater than 70% making this family of permanent magnets one of the more expensive.
