General information on Ceramic Magnets Ceramic Magnets are made from strontium carbonate and iron oxide. Ceramic magnets are black in color and are hard and brittle. Ceramic magnets are the most widely used magnet in the home, industry and commerce due to good resistance to demagnetization and the lowest cost among all kinds of magnets. Grade C1 ceramic magnets are made of non-oriented materials and have less magnetic strength than Grade C5 and C8. Ceramic Blocks Axially Magnetized Magnet, USA Standard Ceramic Square Block Magnets C5 40X40X8mm Grade C5 and C8 ceramic magnets are magnetic oriented and are magnetized only through the oriented direction, but they are more powerful than C1.C8 ceramic magnets have higher resistance to magnetic demagnetization than C5 and C1. For more detailed information on ceramic magnets, please see the table below.

Ceramic magnets are also known as hard ferrites or ferrite magnets, which are composed of primarily iron oxide, Fe2O3. The two common compositions are: strontium ferrite, SrFe12O19 (SrO·6Fe2O3) and barium ferrite BaFe12O19 (BaO·6Fe2O3). Soft ferrites have lower coercivity and the common compositions are manganese-zinc ferrite (MnZn, with the formula MnaZn(1-a)Fe2O4) and nickel-zinc ferrite (NiZn, with the formula NiaZn(1-a)Fe2O4).
Ceramic magnets can be either isotropic or anisotropic. Isotropic ceramic magnets can be magnetized in any direction while the anisotropic ceramic magnets can only be magnetized through the easy axis (magnetization direction). They have very high electrical resistivity (around 106 Ohm-cm) and positive reversible temperature coefficient of intrinsic coercivity.
Ceramic maximum energy product, (BH)max, is lower than other permanent magnets, so they are typically much larger magnets in actual application. By weight, they are the most widely used magnet globally. Ceramics are chemically stable and the least expensive magnets due to inexpensive raw materials and processes. Maximum energy product, (BH)max, of 1 to 4 MGOe, is lower than that of rare earth magnets but intrinsic coercivity, Hci, from 2500 to 4000 Oersteds, (higher than Alnico). Ceramic magnets are a cost-effective choice in many industrial applications.
