Coercivity, saturation magnetisation and Size dependent properties of Nano particles Magnetic hysteresis Magnetic induction field lags behinds Magnetic field intensity Hysteresis loop If an alternating magneric field is applied to the material it’s magnetic induction will traceout a loop called HYSTERESIS LOOP Saturation of magnetization Increase in applied external magnetic field (H) cannot increase the magnetization of material further Retentivity of magnetization Remaining magnetization when external magnetic field (H) Co-ercivity of magnetization Magnetization (B) =0 for negative to the external magnetic field (H) Size dependent properties of nano particles SIZE plays vital role on the mechanical properties Plastic deformation of nanostructure coating strictly depends on the grain size With decrease in grain size beyond certain limit, Hall-Petch eqn doesn’t apply this indicates particular material will become softer Reduction of granule size has remarkable effect on improvement of resistant against erosion in nanostructure and composite materials Erosion behavior under low and average loading condition in nano-materials shows that , because of higher stiffness, erosion resistance of these materials is more than that of materials with large size. Effect of size on Mechanical properties It is differ from conventional or bulk structures Effective elastic properties of these small-scale structural elements strongly depends on their size. Small-scale structures are very sensitive to the micro-structural features of the material such as the GRAIN SIZE , the finite NUMBER OF GRAINS ,BOUNDARY LAYER THICKNESS , TEXTURE and DISLOCATION STRUCTURE . Research studies have shown that when particles ‘ size reaches to the dimension of nanometer , remarkable improvement can be observed in strength of composites In nanoscale bars and plates effective elastic properties of structural elements strongly depend on their size It was found that a nano-whisker can have a mechanical strength approaching to the theoretical strength values Strength increase becomes appreciable only on diameter less than 10microns thanks
