List of types of magnets :
Ferrite magnets
Permanent magnets composed of Barium or Strontium
Ferrite.
Alnico magnets
Magnets of composite of aluminum, nickel and cobalt with some
amounts of other elements added to enhance the properties of the
magnet.
Ceramic magnets
Are made of a composite of iron oxide and barium or strontiumcarbonate.
Neodymium magnets
A type of rare-earth magnet, is a permanent magnet
made of neodymium and iron.
Samarium Cobalt magnets
Magnetic applications where high temperature and corrosion
resistance is critical.
Flexible magnets
Those magnets are produced in flat strips andsheets. These magnets are lower in
magnetic strength and flexible.
Isotropic magnets
Are weaker than oriented magnets, and can be magnetized inany
direction.
Anisotropic magnet
is having a preferred direction of magnetic orientation, sothat the
magnetic
characteristics are optimum in one preferred direction.
