Novamet Stainless Steel Magnetic Flakes

All four grades of Stainless Steel Flake available form Hart Materials exhibit soft ferromagnetism.

Typical properties of coatings prepared from these grades of flake (suspended in an air-drying acrylic binder at a pigment to binder ratio of 1.33:1) are shown below:

Novamet Stainless Steel Fine Leafing Grade
Coercivity (Hc) 69 Oe
Saturation magnetisation (MS) 18 x 10-3 emu
Remanent magnetisation (MR) 6 x 10-3 emu

Novamet Stainless Steel Standard Leafing Grade
Coercivity (Hc) 62 Oe
Saturation magnetisation (MS) 17 x 10-3 emu
Remanent magnetisation (MR) 7 x 10-3 emu

Novamet Stainless Steel Fine Water Grade
Coercivity (Hc) 91 Oe
Saturation magnetisation (MS) 18 x 10-3 emu
Remanent magnetisation (MR) 8 x 10-3 emu

Novamet Stainless Steel Standard Water Grade
Coercivity (Hc) 123 Oe
Saturation magnetisation (MS) 5 x 10-3 emu
Remanent magnetisation (MR) 2 x 10-3 emu

The outstanding feature is the high coercivity value shown by the Standard Water Grade.
