BS EN 10331:2003 - Magnetic materials — Specification for sintered soft magnetic materials

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies some magnetic and mechanical properties of sintered soft magnetic metals which are used for components made by a powder metallurgical process only.
This standard does not apply to magnetically soft castings or to semi-finished products.
2 Normative references
This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including amendments).

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this European Standard, the terms and definitions given in IEC 60050-121:1998 and IEC 60050-221:1990, and the following apply:
3.1
sintered density,
quotient of mass m and volume V of the sintered structural part (including pores) :
NOTE The sintered density ρ s , given in equation (1) in grammes per cubic centimetres, is calculated from m in grammes and V in cubic centimetres.
3.2 porosity,
P s
content of pores relative to the total volume of the part in volume per cent
NOTE 1 Porosity of the sintered metal with the sintered density is calculated as follows:
