Abstract

Provided is a powder which has a high saturation magnetic flux density and excellent flame retardancy. This powder is a flame retardant powder for a magnetic member, and includes a plurality of flaky particles. These particles are composed of an Fe—Si-based alloy containing 7% by mass or more and 12% by mass or less of Si. The content of Si in terms of percentage by mass, P(Si), in this alloy and the flame retardancy parameter P NF satisfy the following mathematical formulae (I) and (II): (−0.97×P(Si)+13.0)<P NF ≤10 (I), P NF =D50×TD/ρ (II), wherein, D50 represents the median diameter of the powder, TD represents the tap density of the powder, and ρ represents the true density of the powder.

First claim

wherein the flaky particle is composed of an Fe—Si based alloy comprising 7% by mass or more and 12% by mass or less of Si, and a content of Si in terms of percentage by mass, P(Si), in the alloy and a flame retardancy parameter, P NF , satisfy following mathematical formulae (I) and (II):
(−0.97×P(Si)+13.0)<P NF ≤10  (I)

P NF =D50×TD/ρ  (II)

wherein D50 represents a median diameter of the powder, TD represents a tap density of the powder, and ρ represents a true density of the powder,
wherein the flame retardant powder has a saturation magnetic flux density of 1.3 T or more,
wherein the flame retardant powder has a coercive force Hc of 550 A/m or more, and
wherein the tap density TD of the flame retardant powder is 0.6 g/cm 3 or more and 1.7 g/cm 3 or less.

2. A polymer composition for magnetic members, comprising a base polymer and a flame retardant powder dispersed in the base polymer,
wherein the flame retardant powder comprises a plurality of flaky particles, the flaky particle is composed of an Fe—Si based alloy comprising 7% by mass or more and 12% by mass or less of Si, and a content of Si in terms of percentage by mass, P (Si), in the alloy and a flame retardancy parameter, P NF , in the powder satisfy following mathematical formulae (I) and (II):
(−0.97×P(Si)+13.0)<P NF ≤10  (I)

P NF =D50×TD/ρ  (II)

wherein D50 represents a median diameter of the powder, TD represents a tap density of the powder, and ρ represents a true density of the powder,
wherein the flame retardant powder has a saturation magnetic flux density of 1.3 T or more,
wherein the flame retardant powder has a coercive force Hc of 550 A/m or more, and
