Standard Specifications for Permanent Magnet Materials
Defines thermal and mechanical characteristics and properties of commercially available permanent magnet materials including Alnico, Ceramic, Rare Earth (Samarium cobalt and neodymium) and Iron-Chromium-Cobalt. Includes a Glossary of Terms and Magnetic Quantities (Symbols, Units and Conversion Factors).

Breakaway Force of a Magnet
Explains the test methods used to determine how much force it takes to pull a magnet directly away from the surface it is attached to.
