Abstract: A bonded soft magnet object comprising bonded soft magnetic particles of an iron-containing alloy having a soft magnet characteristic, wherein the bonded soft magnetic particles have a particle size of at least 200 nm and up to 100 microns. Also described herein is a method for producing the bonded soft magnet by indirect additive manufacturing (IAM), such as by: (i) producing a soft magnet preform by bonding soft magnetic particles with an organic binder, wherein the magnetic particles have an iron-containing alloy composition with a soft magnet characteristic, and wherein the particles of the soft magnet material have a particle size of at least 200 nm and up to 100 microns; (ii) subjecting the preform to an elevated temperature sufficient to remove the organic binder to produce a binder-free preform; and (iii) sintering the binder-free preform at a further elevated temperature to produce the bonded soft magnet.
