To improve the magnetic properties of iron-based soft magnetic composites (SMCs), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) with excellent heat resistance, electrical insulation, and extremely high electrical resistivity was chosen as an insulating coating material for the preparation of iron-based SMCs. The effects of PTFE content, compaction pressure, and annealing treatment on the magnetic properties of Fe/PTFE SMCs were investigated in detail. The results demonstrate that the PTFE insulating layer is successfully coated on the surface of iron powders, which effectively reduces the core loss, increases the resistivity, and improves the frequency stability and the quality factor.

MnZn ferrite homogeneous fibers were synthesized via a simple solvothermal method and they were used as a reinforcing phase to prepare homogeneous-fiber-reinforced MnZn ferrite materials. The effects of MnZn ferrite homogeneous fibers (0 wt% to 4 wt%) doping on the microstructure, magnetic, and mechanical properties of MnZn ferrite materials were studied systematically. The results showed that MnZn ferrite homogeneous fibers exhibited high purity, good crystallinity, and smooth 1D fibrous structures, which were homogeneous with MnZn ferrite materials.
