Patent ID: 7575645

Claim:
An Fe—Ni—Mo soft magnetic flaky powder, having a component composition of, in percent by mass, Ni: 60 to 90%, Mo: 0.05 to 1.95%, and the balance of Fe and unavoidable impurities, with an average particle size of 30 to 120 μm, and each particle having a flat surface, and an aspect ratio (average particle size/average thickness) of 5 to 500; wherein a peak intensity ratio I 200 /I 111 is within a range between 0.43 and 10, where I 200 is the peak height of the face index (200) and I 111 is the peak height of the face index (111), in an X-ray diffraction pattern measured in such a manner that the plane including the X-ray incident direction and the diffraction direction is perpendicular to the flat surface of said soft magnetic flaky powder, and the angle between the incident direction and the flat surface is equal to the angle between the diffraction direction and the flat surface.
