RESUMO

Aluminum is often added to electrical steels since this element causes improvement of the magnetic properties. However the addition of aluminum is usually limited to 0.30 wt%1. Therefore, this work aimed at evaluating the influence of higher levels of aluminum in the magnetic properties of semi-processed steels. To accomplish this, four types of steel were produced in laboratory with different aluminum contents (0.10, 0.30, 0.60 and 1.0 wt%). Carbon, manganese and silicon concentrations were kept constant. It was observed that an increased aluminum content caused reduction of the magnetic core loss, especially of the eddy current component. However, the magnetic permeability virtually wasn't influenced by aluminum concentration.
