Popis: A soft magnetic composite material was prepared from a commercial, iron-based, soft magnetic powder. Its morphology and composition were examined using SEM, EDS and AES. The flat surface of the sample was found to be of a homogeneous composition, corresponding to the basic soft magnetic powder, whereas phosphorous and zinc were found in the subsurface layers of the sample. These were accessed and probed through the pores in the sample surface. AES and XPS analyses was also performed on non-compressed soft magnetic powder particles, yielding phosphorous compounds.
