Abstract
An Fe-based soft magnetic alloy is consisted essentially of fine crystal grains constituting 50% or more of the alloy structure by area %. The Fe-based soft magnetic alloy has the composition substantially represented by the general formula: Fe.sub.100-a-b-c-d-e-f X.sub.a M.sub.b M'.sub.c A.sub.d Si.sub.e Z.sub.f (wherein X is at least one compound selected from the ceramic materials fusible when the composition is fused and rapidly quenched to form a rapidly cooled alloy, M is at least one element selected from the group consisting of Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo and W, M' is at least one element selected from the group consisting of Mn, elements in the platinum group, Ag, Au, Zn, Al, Ga, In, Sn, Cu and rare each elements, A is at least one element selected from among Co and Ni, Z is at least one element selected from the group consisting of B, C, P and Ge. Said a, b, c, d, e and f respectively satisfy 0.1.ltoreq.a.ltoreq.5, 0.1.ltoreq.b.ltoreq.10, 0.ltoreq.c.ltoreq.10, 0.ltoreq.d.ltoreq.40, 5.ltoreq.e.ltoreq.25, 2.ltoreq.f.ltoreq.20, 12.ltoreq.e+f.ltoreq.30, provided that all the numerals in the said formulae are in terms of atomic %). The inorganic compound represented by X of the above general formula makes the precipitating crystal grains super fine, thereby reducing dependence of the soft magnetic properties on the heat treatment temperature.
