Magnetic material can be defined as an object which Produces magnetic field. The Magnetic response of such material largely depends on its spin of electron and dipole movement. A magnetic material can be classified in permanent or temporary, soft, semi-hard or hard, each of them with specific properties and uses. A magnet generates a continuous magnetic field which is nothing, but a form of current which flows inside the material. Magnets are now used in every sphere of industry. The Microphone we use to electric motors in cars, all are derivatives of magnet. It is now extensively used in medical industry, for instance MRI called as magnetic resonance imaging use powerful magnets in combination with radio waves to diagnose variety of conditions inside body. The Dynamic evolution in electronic industry is a manifestation that magnet can be a perfect substitution of conventional electronic components. For instance, Nano magnets are replacing the power-hungry transistors in microchips. It can even replace silicon in future, which can re-shape the semiconductor industry. The growth is primarily due to the development & modernization of infrastructure coupled with the growing automotive industry in Asia-Pacific. The factor restraining the growth of this market is fluctuating raw material costs.
