Microstructure and magnetic properties of nanocomposite permanent magnetic materials

It is well known that nanoscale magnetic materials can exhibit significantly different magnetic properties than the corresponding bulk materials. In present work, we summarized the preparation, microstructure, Mossbauer study and magnetic properties of nanocomposites. It was found that both grain size and the amount of magnetically soft phase ${\alpha}$-Fe play a very important role in determining the magnetic properties. (omitted)
