Abstract

A ferrite material in which Bi 2 O 3 is added at 6% by weight or less, and preferably 4% by weight or less, to a ferrite of Li—Zn—(Mn, Fe) containing a specified amount of Mn. In the ferrite material, change of magnetic permeability under high external stress is extremely small, and a core loss under a compression stress is small. By using this ferrite material, an inductor and transformer having small loss even in a state of being molded with resin can be obtained.

Claims (9)

1. A ferrite material having a composition formula of x(Li 0.5 Fe 0.5 )O.yZnO.z(Mn, Fe) 2 O 3 , and wherein in a case of a=Mn/(Mn+Fe), Bi 2 O 3 is added from 0.2% by weight to 6% by weight, to a material in which x, y, z, and a in the composition formula and in the condition satisfy the following relations: 0.18≦x≦0.30, 0.20≦y≦0.30, 0.48≦z≦0.53, 0.01≦a≦0.25, and x+y+z=1.

2. The,ferrite material according to claim 1 , wherein a portion of the Bi 2 O 3 is substituted with V 2 O 5 and a lower limit of the amount of V 2 O 5 added is set to 0.05% by weight, and an upper limit thereof is set to 0.5% by weight.

3. The ferrite material according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of Bi 2 O 3 is from 0.2% by weight to 4% by weight.

4. The ferrite material according to claim 1 , wherein a 50% or less portion of ZnO is substituted with CuO.

5. The ferrite material according to claim 2 , wherein a 50% or less portion of ZnO is substituted with CuO.

6. The ferrite material according to claim 3 , wherein a 50% or less portion of ZnO is substituted with CuO.

7. The ferrite material according to claim 1 , which contains 5% by weight or less of at least one of ZrO 2 , ZrSiO 4 , and SiO 2 .

8. The ferrite material according to claim 1 , wherein magnetic permeability is 200 or more, and a change rate of magnetic permeability when a pressure is applied at a pressure of 35 MPa is within ±10%.

9. The ferrite material according to claim 1 , wherein a core loss at 1 MHz, 50 mT when a pressure is applied at a pressure of 35 MPa is 7000 kW/m 3 or less.
