Abstract

Spherical Fe–Ga particles were prepared by gas atomization. The Ga concentration of gas-atomized particles approached the nominal composition of Fe81Ga19. Most size fractions of particles had a polycrystalline structure. The main A2 phase and a DO3 phase emerged in the as-atomized powders. The L12 phase appeared in the annealed powders. Many single crystals were obtained due to grain growth during the thermal process. The maximum saturation magnetostriction of 6.4 × 10−5 was obtained in the composite containing the annealed powders.
