The internal stresses dependence of the magnetic properties of cast amorphous microwires covered with glass insulation

The anisotropy field of cast amorphous microwires covered with glass is determined by internal stress distribution. Both quenching and thermoelastic stresses are present in microwires. All presented experimental data permit to conclude that thermoelastic stresses determine the magnetic behaviour of the microwires and that the quenching stresses must be taken into account only in the case of small glass thicknesses.
