Study program: Advanced Materials Theme: The preparation of soft magnetic composites by compaction Supervisor: Prof. RNDr. Peter Kollár, CSc. Consultant: RNDr. Ján Füzer, PhD. Annotation: The study is oriented on investigation of the possibility of preparation of the ferromagnetic based composite materials with inorganic or organic nonconductive binder by uniaxial consolidation. The preparation process requires the knowledge concerning ferromagnetic materials and compaction process, i.e. pressure, temperature, atmosphere, duration of compaction. The aim is optimization of compaction process of soft magnetic materials with required magnetic properties at middle-frequency ac magnetic fields. Literature: 1. R. M.
