Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A ferromagnetic amorphous alloy ribbon, a method of fabricating a ribbon and a wound transformer core are provided. The ribbon includes an alloy of Fe a Si b B c C d where 80.5≦a≦83 at. %, 0.5≦b≦6 at. %, 12≦c≦16.5 at. %, 0.01≦d≦1 at. % with a+b+c+d=100, and is cast from a molten state of the alloy, having a-surface tension of greater than or equal to 1.1 N/mi,. A defect length along a direction of the ribbon's length is between 5 mm and 200 mm, a defect depth less than 0.4 ×t μm and a defect occurrence frequency less than 0.05 ×w times within 1.5 m of ribbon length, where t is the ribbon thickness and w is the ribbon width in mm. The ribbon has a saturation magnetic induction exceeding 1.60 T and a magnetic core loss of less than 0.14 W/kg when measured at 60 Hz and at 1.3 T induction level in an annealed straight strip form, and a core magnetic loss of less than 0.3 W/kg and an exciting power of less than 0.4 VA/kg in an annealed wound transformer core form and is suitable for use in transformer cores, rotational machines, electrical chokes, magnetic sensors and pulse power devices.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A ferromagnetic amorphous alloy ribbon comprising: an alloy having a composition represented by Fe a Si b B c C d where 80.5≦a≦83 at. %, 0.5≦b≦6 at. %, 12≦c≦16.5 at. %, 0.01≦d≦1 at. % with a+b+c+d=100 and incidental impurities; the ribbon having been cast from a molten state of the alloy, with a molten alloy surface tension of greater than or equal to 1.1 N/m, the ribbon having a ribbon length, a ribbon thickness, a ribbon width, and a ribbon surface fa…
