Soft magnetic · High-frequency · Powder for monolithic inductors -200+400 mesh / -400 mesh

FeSiCr (FeSi3.7Cr4.5 / FeSi5Cr5.5) is a soft magnetic alloy powder composed of iron, silicon, and chromium, characterized by high permeability and low losses. It serves as the core material for monolithic inductors and metal‑powder magnetic cores. The non‑vacuum atomized powder exhibits excellent sphericity and low oxygen content, making it well suited for both magnetic core compaction and monolithic inductor manufacturing.
