Ι What Is Pure Iron?
Pure iron, widely utilized in industry, is termed industrial pure iron, denoting iron with over 99.8% purity, less than 0.04% carbon, and no deliberately added alloying elements. Industrial pure iron functions as both an alloy material and a soft magnetic material. When employed as a soft magnetic material, it is referred to as electrical pure iron. It ranks among the earliest and most frequently used soft magnetic materials in various industrial applications.
ARMCO iron, valued for its high saturated magnetic flux density, high magnetic permeability, low coercivity, excellent cold working properties, weldability, some corrosion resistance, and affordability, is extensively used in direct current applications. It primarily produces iron cores and magnetic poles for electromagnets, magnetic circuits in electric relays and speakers, components for induction and electromagnetic measuring instruments, and magnetic poles guiding magnetic flux in motors.
