The structure and magnetoelastic properties of the Fe-based amorphous alloy with Hf addition

The paper presents results of investigation performed on newly developed Fe-based amorphous alloy with Hf addition. Structural, magnetic and magnetoelastic properties were tested. Results confirmed that addition of Hf decreases the stress sensitivity of the Fe-based alloy. For this reason, Fe85.4Hf1.4B13.2 alloy is significantly less stress-sensitive than other Fe-based amorphous alloys.
