High field cryogenic magnetization curves
High field cryogenic magnetization curves
(OP)
I am looking for cryogenic high field magnetization for a variety of feebly magnetic and some strongly magnetic structural materials. I know there are several academic labs that have physical property measurement systems which go to 14 or 16 Tesla and to 2.2 Kelvin. Are there any commercial labs that will make these measurements?

I don't know of any commercial sources for this kind of work.

curious about what are your "feebly magnetic and some strongly magnetic structural materials"?

There are some ASTM specs to test low permeability (1.001) for feebly materials at room temp. Is it practical to go under liquid He temp? i often think that is for theoretical studies.
RE: High field cryogenic magnetization curves
It is not totally impractical to measure below liquid Helium temperatures. Quantum Design builds devices which can test in these conditions. Properties at those temperatures are rarely useful for engineering consideration.

We used five or six different austenitic alloys.
It was available material, 304L, AL6-XN, Nit 40, 625, and a couple that I don't remember.
We drew samples to a range of conditions (reductions) for each alloy.
The other party was measuring cryo properties (LHe and LH2), physical and mechanical.
I never saw the data.
At the time I was doing work to control the martensitic transformation in 304 by adjusting the temperature of the draw process.
For most commercial 304L chemistries if you start with material above 135F you can reduce the amount of transformation by >85%.
It really helps to get larger draw reductions.

magnetic induction tends to increase as temp decreases due to decrease in thermal energy. Blocking temperature and Neel temperature are extreme examples.
@ED, yes, 304, especially 304L, is pretty easier to have martensitic transformation at "high" temperature, while 316 is in a better position to gain less magnetism, and 625 perhaps even less than 316.

I care about polarization differences on the order of 10 mT and at fields much higher than in this study. As Ed states the processing history of the materials matters really quite a lot, especially for these cryogenic properties, so I must make the measurements on my own materials.
RE: High field cryogenic magnetization curves
Even at very heavy cold reductions.
Modern chemistries make this a challenge to do in production.
