Overview
Scope of the Report
High magnetic induction oriented silicon steel (Hi-B steel) is a silicon steel material with excellent magnetic properties. It has high magnetic induction intensity and low iron loss under high magnetic field, which is its most significant feature. This excellent magnetic property enables Hi-B steel to convert and transmit electric energy more effectively in power equipment, thereby improving the efficiency and performance of the equipment. In the chemical composition of Hi-B steel, the carbon content is usually less than 0.005%, and the silicon content varies within a certain range, but is generally less than 4.5%. The addition of silicon can significantly increase the resistivity and magnetic permeability of the material and reduce iron loss. Due to its excellent magnetic properties, Hi-B steel is widely used in power transformers, motors, electromagnets and other fields. Especially in large power transformers, Hi-B steel as a core material can significantly reduce iron loss and noise, and improve the operating efficiency and stability of the transformer. The production process of Hi-B steel is relatively complex, and it is necessary to strictly control parameters such as chemical composition, hot rolling and cold rolling temperature, and annealing process. Among them, secondary recrystallization annealing is one of the key steps in producing Hi-B steel, through which an oriented structure with excellent magnetic properties can be obtained.
Global key High Magnetic Induction Oriented Silicon Steel (Hi-B steel) players cover Baoshan Iron & Steel, Wuhan Iron and Steel, Shougang Group, Chongqing Wangbian Electric, Nippon Steel Corporation, etc.
