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)
“If our entertainment culture seems debased and unsatisfying, the hope is that our children will create something of greater worth. But it is as if we expect them to create out of nothing, like God, for the encouragement of creativity is in the popular mind, opposed to instruction. There is little sense that creativity must grow out of tradition, even when it is critical of that tradition, and children are scarcely being given the materials on which their creativity could work”
—C. John Sommerville (20th century)
