Syntheses and Fundamental Properties of Fe-rich Metastable Phase Alloys with Saturation Magnetization Exceeding 1.9 T.　

A melt-spun Fe90Si5B5 alloy ribbon consists of bcc-Fe(Si) + Fe3B + amorphous phase and exhibits good bending ductility, high tensile fracture strength above 1000 MPa, high corrosion resistance and unique magnetic properties as exemplified for high saturation magnetization exceeding 1.9 T, moderately high initial permeability of about 150 and low coercivity of 745 A/m which are attractive for magnetic sensors utilizing a nearly constant high permeability with applied field up to coercivity.
