Curie Temperature in Ferromagnetic and Ferrimagnetic Materials
Given below are various Curie temperatures for different substances.
| Substance | Curie temp °C |
|---|---|
| Iron (Fe) | 770 |
| Cobalt (Co) | 1130 |
| Nickel (Ni) | 358 |
| Iron Oxide (Fe2O3) | 622 |
Gadolinium is ferromagnetic at temperatures below 19 °C (66 °F), approximately room temperature, and strongly paramagnetic above that temperature.

Famous quotes containing the words temperature and/or materials:
“The bourgeois treasures nothing more highly than the self.... And so at the cost of intensity he achieves his own preservation and security. His harvest is a quiet mind which he prefers to being possessed by God, as he prefers comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to that deathly inner consuming fire.”
—Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)
“Herein is the explanation of the analogies, which exist in all the arts. They are the re-appearance of one mind, working in many materials to many temporary ends. Raphael paints wisdom, Handel sings it, Phidias carves it, Shakspeare writes it, Wren builds it, Columbus sails it, Luther preaches it, Washington arms it, Watt mechanizes it. Painting was called “silent poetry,” and poetry “speaking painting.” The laws of each art are convertible into the laws of every other.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
