2. CLASSIFICATION OF MAGNETIC MATERIALS
With respect to magnetic behavior, the magnetic materials are classified as
Diamagnetic Material
Paramagnetic Material
Ferromagnetic Material
Antiferromagnetic Material
Ferrimagnetic Material
Manifestation of magnetic behavior
The equivalent atomic current loops are characterized by their magnetic
dipole moments

Diamagnetism has its origin in the circular
charges in the orbits
When the individual dipoles do not interact
with each other………(Paramagnetic
behavior)
Ferromagnetic bahavior
Antiferromagnetism or ferrimagnetism
5. DIAMAGNETISM
Diamagnetic is nothing but negative magnetic substance
The value of susceptibility for a diamagnetic and ferromagnetic material
is given by the relation,
Xm = μr – 1= M/H
Diamagnetic has no ordinary practical uses

6. PARAMAGNETISM
Definition of paramagnetism
If no opposing force act…....
Weak magnetization, and small positive susceptibility
Susceptibility in paramagnetism

7. FERROMAGNETISM
Characteristics of Ferro magnetism
Magnetization arises spontaneously
Ferromagnetic Curie temperature
Ferromagnetic Behavior below Curie Temperature Tc
