Summary

Description
English: Magnetization curves of 9 ferromagnetic substances; a plot of the flux density B as a function of magnetizing field H. They all show saturation, the levelling off of B with increasing H that is characteristic of ferromagnetic substances. The graph was traced from a 1917 electronics book, so the accuracy of the data may not be equal to modern measurements.

The substances are:

  1. standard sheet steel, annealed,
  2. silicon sheet steel, annealed, Si 2.5%,
  3. soft steel casting,
  4. tungsten steel,
  5. magnet steel,
  6. cast iron,
  7. nickel, 99%,
  8. cast cobalt,
  9. Magnetite, Fe2O3.
