Global Soft Magnetic Materials Market Dynamics
Drivers: Increase in demand for electric and hybrid vehicles
Electric vehicles (EVs) use electric motors or traction motors for propulsion. An EV is powered by batteries, solar panels, and an electric generator that converts fuel to electricity. A hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) combines conventional and electric sources for propulsion. The traction motors used in such vehicles are direct current (DC) motors. DC motor is a series of field windings. These motors are better in speed control, have higher efficiency, no sparking, longer lifetime, higher torque to weight ratio, more reliability, and less noise. In DC motors, DC electricity is directed into an inverter, converted to alternating current (AC) electricity, and connected to a 3phase AC motor.
Soft magnetic materials have a narrow magnetic hysteresis loop to minimize losses and maximize permeability; thus, they are used in traction motors to reduce energy loss. Therefore, soft magnetic materials are extensively utilized in electric vehicle engine parts, motors, ignition–related components, and other highly functional electric automotive components. The increase in consumption and production of electric vehicles is influencing the adoption of DC motors which eventually drives the demand for raw materials related to battery production.
Restraints: Instability in the raw material prices
Soft magnetic materials are used in various automotive parts, motor engines, electric engines, sensors, transformers, chokes, medical devices, mining, etc. High permeability and coercivity properties of soft magnetic materials improve engine efficiency and transmission efficiency due to decreased power loss. The raw materials used in soft magnetic materials are cobalt, nickel, iron, and other alloys derived from these metals.
Soft magnetic materials being a niche market, are highly affected by the pricing fluctuations of these metals. In response to the instability in the price trend, manufacturers of various end–use industries face several challenges, which hamper the supply side of the material, including cobalt, nickel, and alloys. Due to irregular supply, the market has faced an unstable supply–demand gap for cobalt and nickel and their alloys. Hence, fluctuation in the price of raw materials is a key source that further hampers the growth of the global soft magnetic material market.
Opportunities: Development of nano–structured soft magnetic materials
Increased demand for soft magnetic materials in automotive, healthcare, energy & power, aviation, and various other industries led to increased R&D activities. The companies are indulging in the continuous development of the current technology of soft magnetic materials to enhance them for better efficiency and lower energy loss during the process. Soft magnetic nano–particles exhibit a varied unusual behavior when compared to bulk materials. This is due to symmetry breaking, surface/ interface effects, charge transfer, or magnetic interactions. Nano–structured materials possess high strength, ductility in normally brittle materials, wear–resistance, improved hardness, corrosion–resistance erosion–resistance, and higher chemical activity. Soft magnetic nanocrystalline materials have higher coercivity and low remanence properties. These materials can be for data storage purposes, thin–film in media and entertainment, power electronics, and sensors. The nano–structured soft magnetic material with enhanced properties is anticipated to offer new growth opportunities during the forecast period.

The iron segment is projected to account for the largest market share, by material
Based on material, the global soft magnetic materials market is divided into cobalt, iron, nickel, electric steel, and others. In 2021, the iron segment accounted for the largest market share of 41.0% in the global soft magnetic materials market. Iron contains a minuscule carbon content (less than 0.1%). This material is refined to get the maximum permeability and less coercive force to make it a soft magnetic material. But, it produces eddy current loss when subjected to very high flux density due to low resistivity.
Iron–based soft magnetic material is widely used in many electrical apparatus and instruments such as a magnetic material core for electromagnets, low–frequency components for relay electrical instruments because it produces eddy current loss. The demand for relay devices is significantly increasing due to the rise in power generation at the power grid to trip a circuit breaker when a fault is detected during electricity transmission. In addition, a surge in infrastructure development activities across developing nations such as India, China, Vietnam, and the Philippines leads to the construction of new railway lines. This factor is expected to increase the demand for railway signaling relay devices and thus drive the growth of the iron–based soft magnetic material.
