Can Magnets Affect Wireless Charging?
Wireless charging has become popular amongst all devices, but did you know it is only possible because magnets use their magnetic field to transfer power.

It is possible for the very small components of mechanical wristwatches to become magnetised when placed in close proximity to very strong magnetic fields if these parts are made from ferrous materials.
Neodymium magnets are hard making them prone to breaking and chipping which is why to protect our neodymium magnets we coat them with a nickel-coat-nickel.

We are going to show you how you can create the simplest but by far the most awesome DIY electric train by using nothing more than a battery, some bare copper wire and two magnets.
There are many types of traditional fishing such as bait fishing, fly-fishing and baitcasting but a new type of fishing has been taken by lakes and rivers by storm… magnet fishing! Where instead of catching exotic fish, you can literally haul up trophies.
The process for manufacturing ceramic magnets, is not as costly or sophisticated as producing rare-earth neodymium magnets. The chemical compound of ceramic magnets is SrO-6 (Fe2O3), a combination of strontium carbonate and iron oxide. Due to their chemical make-up it means they are extremely resistant to demagnetisation through heat and corrosion, although, like neodymium magnets they are very hard and brittle. Step 1 – Calcination The production of ceramic magnets begins with calcining a finely powdered mixture of iron oxide and strontium carbonate to produce a metallic-oxide material. In some... Read More
Samarium cobalt magnets are widely produced and the permanent magnets are primarily made up of samarium and cobalt but some grades will also contain varying small amounts of iron (Fe), copper (Cu), hafnium (Hf), zirconium (Zr) and praseodymium (Pr). A number of common manufacturing processes can be used to produce samarium cobalt magnets but typically, a method of reduction and melting is used followed by a process of bonding or sintering the raw material to form the magnet. Bonded Samarium Cobalt Magnets . . Step 1 – Heated Firstly, the... Read More
Magnet Fishing is extremely popular in the US and has seen the sport go viral on social media repeatedly. The overall concept is simple, throw a magnet tied to your rope into a body of water and see what you find.
Magnets can be extremely useful and have many benefits for a wide range of applications, but they do come with some hazards. If you place two magnets close to each other you will see them attract, in which they leap towards each other with great acceleration and then slam together. All our magnets are tested, and each magnet is clearly labelled with its pull-strength and our stronger magnets are packaged alongside a warning brochure. Neodymium magnets are amongst the strongest magnets in the world, and the force at which they... Read More
