Molding compound and process for producing a soft magnetic composite material with the molding compound

It is a molding compound, in particular for producing a soft magnetic composite material proposed which comprises a soft magnetic properties exhibiting starting powder, a thermoplastic compound, and a lubricant. The lubricant is particularly stearic acid. Further, it is proposed to use such a molding material for producing a soft magnetic composite material, wherein the manufacturing process steps preparation of the molding material, injecting the molding compound at a temperature below the melting temperature of the thermoplastic compound, first Temepraturbehandlung of the pressed molding compound below the melting temperature of the thermoplastic compound and the second temperature treatment the pressed molding compound above the melting temperature of the thermoplastic compound comprises. The proposed soft magnetic composite material is particularly suitable for the production of heat-resistant, corrosion-resistant and fuel-resistant soft magnetic components for fast controllers and actuators.
