Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide magnetic metallic powder having a smaller rate of a decrease in a satd. quantity of magnetization deltas than conventional magnetic metallic powder and having excellent oxidation stability by providing a copper film on the surface of powder particles. CONSTITUTION:Various water soluble copper salts such as copper sulfate, copper halide, copper nitrate or the like are reduced by alkali metal borohydride in the alkaline suspension thereof. The copper is thus deposited selectively on the particle surface of the magnetic metallic powder and a copper film is formed thereon. Since the copper film has extremely excellent oxidation stability, the oxidation stability of the magnetic metallic powder is much improved. The copper in this case is preferably used within a range of 1.0-20.0pts.wt. in 100pts.wt. the magnetic metallic powder. For example, sodium borohydride, etc. are adequately usable as the alkali metal borohydride.
