  • Publication number: 20240087807
    Abstract: A powder magnetic core according to an aspect of the present disclosure is a powder magnetic core in which a magnetic powder is bonded via a binder layer. The powder magnetic core contains 88 volume % or more of magnetic powder, and when a cross-sectional photograph of the powder magnetic core is taken, an area of the cross-sectional photograph having a size of 10000 ?m2 is divided into unit areas, one or more of the unit areas in which the size of a cross-sectional area of a binder accounts for 50% or more of the unit area are extracted as specific unit areas, and the percentage of the number of specific unit areas with respect to the total number of unit areas is equal to or larger than 0.2% but equal to or smaller than 3.0%.

  • Publication number: 20240087781
    Abstract: A powder magnetic core capable of achieving a low loss in a high frequency range is provided. A powder magnetic core according to the present disclosure is a powder magnetic core in which a magnetic powder is bonded via a binder layer. A volume filling percentage of the magnetic powder included in the powder magnetic core is 85 volume % or higher, and a value obtained by dividing a BET specific surface area (m2/g) of the powder magnetic core by a specific surface area (m2/g) calculated using outer dimensions of the powder magnetic core is 5000 or less.

  • Publication number: 20230326656
    Abstract: To provide a dust core with good direct current superimposition characteristics and an inductor using such a dust core. A dust core according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes magnetic powder particles that are bound together through a binder layer, in which when a magnetic permeability in a state where a magnetic flux density generated by a direct current is 0 T is represented by ?B=0 T and a magnetic permeability in a state where the magnetic flux density generated by a direct current is 0.5 T is represented by ?B=0.5 T, a value expressed by ?B=0.5 T/?B=0 T is 0.65 or higher.

  • Patent number: 11710588
    Abstract: A forming method of a composite magnetic sheet. The forming method comprises a preparing step, a forming step and a heat-treating step. In the preparing step, magnetic slurry is prepared by mixing at least a soft magnetic powder having a flat shape, a first resin having a solid component and a second resin having a solid component, weight loss of the solid component of the first resin being 4.0% or less at 220° C., weight loss of the solid component of the second resin being 5.0% or more at 220° C. In the forming step, the magnetic slurry is formed into an intermediate body having a sheet-like shape. In the heat-treating step, the intermediate body is heat-treated at a heat-treatment temperature between 220° C. and 400° C. (both inclusive).

  • Patent number: 11383487
    Abstract: A laminated substrate includes an upper prepreg cured body, a lower prepreg cured body and a magnetic member. The magnetic member is sandwiched between the upper prepreg cured body and the lower prepreg cured body in an up-down direction. The upper prepreg cured body is directly coupled to the lower prepreg cured body all over a predetermined area surrounding the magnetic member in a plane perpendicular to the up-down direction. The magnetic member is formed by binding soft magnetic metal powder using a binder. The soft magnetic metal powder consists of particles each of which has a flat shape. The binder comprises inorganic oxide as a chief ingredient. The magnetic member includes the soft magnetic metal powder of 60 vol. % or more and open pores of 10 vol. % or more and 30 vol. % or less. The magnetic member has a thickness of 0.3 mm or less.
