Abstract
Abstract A magnetic powder is prepared by dispersing iron oxide or iron oxide hydrate which can be coated or doped with at least one of cobalt, nickel, tin, titanium, bismuth, zinc or antimony or its compound, as the starting material into an aqueous solution of a water soluble resin and separating the powder and heating it in a reducing atmosphere to reduce it.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
87 words
A process for preparing a magnetic powder, which comprises: dispersing finely powdered iron oxide or iron oxide hydrate optionally coated or doped with at least one element selected from the group consisting of cobalt, nickel, tin, titanium, bismuth, zinc and antimony or at least one compound of said element(s) into an aqueous solution containing a hydrophilic macromolecular compound in an amount sufficient to coat said finely powdered iron oxide or iron oxide hydrate; separating said coated powdered material; and reducing said powdered material in a reducing atmosphere.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
87 words
A process for preparing a magnetic powder, which comprises: dispersing finely powdered iron oxide or iron oxide hydrate optionally coated or doped with at least one element selected from the group consisting of cobalt, nickel, tin, titanium, bismuth, zinc and antimony or at least one compound of said element(s) into an aqueous solution containing a hydrophilic macromolecular compound in an amount sufficient to coat said finely powdered iron oxide or iron oxide hydrate; separating said coated powdered material; and reducing said powdered material in a reducing atmosphere.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
32 words
The process according to claim 1 wherein said hydrophilic macromolecular compound is polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyvinyl methyl ether, gelatin starch, a starch derivative, a cellulose derivative, a polysccharide or a polysaccharide derivative.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
27 words
The process according to claim 1 or 2 wherein the aqueous solution of said hydrophilic macromolecular compound is at a concentration of 0.3 to 30.0 wt. %.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
38 words
The process according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the reduction is conducted by heating the powder at a temperature of 300° to 500° C., but less than the sintering temperature of said powder in the reducing atmosphere.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
27 words
The process according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the dispersed iron oxide or iron oxide hydrate is separated by forcible filtration or centrifugal separation before reduction.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
26 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein the said hydrophilic macromolecular compound in the aqueous solution is at a concentration of 1.0 to 15.0 wt. %.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
95 words
A process for preparing a magnetic powder, which comprises: dispersing finely powdered iron oxide or iron oxide hydrate optionally coated or doped with at least one element selected from the group consisting of cobalt, nickel, tin, titanium, bismuth, zinc and antimony or at least one compound of said element(s) into an aqueous solution containing from 0.3 to 30.0 wt. % of polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, polyvinylmethyl ether, gelatin, starch, a starch derivative, a cellulose derivative, a polysaccharide or a polysaccharide derivative; separating said coated powdered material; and reducing said powdered material in a reducing atmosphere.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
95 words
A process for preparing a magnetic powder, which comprises: dispersing finely powdered iron oxide or iron oxide hydrate optionally coated or doped with at least one element selected from the group consisting of cobalt, nickel, tin, titanium, bismuth, zinc and antimony or at least one compound of said element(s) into an aqueous solution containing from 0.3 to 30.0 wt. % of polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, polyvinylmethyl ether, gelatin, starch, a starch derivative, a cellulose derivative, a polysaccharide or a polysaccharide derivative; separating said coated powdered material; and reducing said powdered material in a reducing atmosphere.
