Abstract: The thermostable amorphous ferromagnetic powder containing iron, cobalt, or nickel, also comprises xylene from 0.2 to 25% by volume of the powder particles, up to 20% chrome and boron by weight, and lithium or magnesium in amounts from 0.1 to 2.0% by weight. The powder is resistant to oxidizing up to temperatures of 250.degree. C. and has a specific surface up to 160m.sup.2 /g.The method for its manufacture comprises reduction of a solution containing salts of iron, cobalt, chrome, a complexing agent, and metal salts or polyvalent alcohols by means of a reductant sodium borohydride in the presence of sodium hydroxide. The solution is protected by an organic hydrophobic substance--xylene during a period from 5 seconds to 10 minutes in the presence of a magnetic field.The device for manufacture of the thermostable amorphous ferromagnetic powder comprises a vertical reactor with a stirrer and electromagnet generating a magnetic field.
