  • Publication number: 20240387083
    Abstract: Provided is an Fe-based soft magnetic alloy. An Fe-based soft magnetic alloy is represented by the empirical formula XaBbSicCudMe, wherein: X includes Fe and at least one element among Ni and Co; M includes at least one element among Nb and Mo; a, b, c, d, and e indicate the atomic percents (at %) of corresponding elements, in which 15.0?b+c?19.0, 0.5?d?1.5, and 2.0?e?5.0; and X is included as the remainder. Accordingly, the Fe-based soft magnetic alloy has high saturation magnetic flux density and low magnetic loss characteristics, and thus can be very easily used in various parts using magnetic materials. In addition, since the effect of heat treatment conditions can be minimized during the realization of uniform and small crystal grains after heat treatment, process conditions can be easily designed, so that the Fe-based soft magnetic alloy is very suitable for mass production.

  • Patent number: 11936075
    Abstract: Disclosed are a separator for fuel cells capable of minimizing the volume of a system and the use of sealants, and a stack for fuel cells, more particularly, a stack for solid oxide fuel cells, including the same. Specifically, by adding a metal sheet having a specific shape, position and size to the separator, the stress applied to the sealant can be uniformized, and thus the oxidizing agent and fuel can be separated and electrically isolated using only a piece of sealant. Therefore, the stack for fuel cells is characterized in that there is no variation in temperature, reactant concentration, power, or the like between respective unit cells, so delamination and microcracks do not occur, the volume is minimized, and the power density per unit volume is very high.
