Abstract
Abstract Method of making an anisotropic permanent magnetic body which has a (B.H) max of at least 1.4 × 10 6 Gauss . Oersted and a remanence of at least 2500 Gauss, utilizes magnetic powder particles having a coercivity J H C at least equal to the actual remanence B r of the finally prepared magnetic body, a remanence 4πJ r equal to about 1.3 to 1.6 of the actual remanence B r of the finally produced magnetic body and a fullness factor ##EQU1## which is at least 0.6.
