METALLIC NANOSTRUCTURED CARBIDE PRODUCTS WITH MAGNETIC PROPERTIES MANUFACTURED FROM MINERAL GRAPHITE AND TRANSITION METALS.

摘要

The present invention consists in a product of metallic nanostructured carbides manufactured with transition metals with magnetic properties resulting from mineral graphite of mines of the State of Sonora, Mexico, without being subjected to a previous refining treatment, and transition metals of reactant quality; in addition, the method for obtaining said nanomaterial is described. This metallic nanostructured carbide shown a coercivity characteristic proper of white ferromagnetic materials when the magnetization curve was measured, this characteristic may facilitate the demagnetization without loss of energy, thus turning the invention into a superior material compared to already known materials for possible magnetic applications as shock absorbers for automobiles. The magnetic properties are refined (reduction of coercivity and increase of the value of the saturation field) upon being subjected to a baking process, then passing through a mechanical milling of high energy.
