Electromagnetic properties of magnetic core materials used in the blocking filter for Power Line Communication

전력선 통신 Blocking filter용 자심 재료의 전자기적 특성

The electromagnetic properties and thermal behavior of ferrite cores used in the blocking filter for PLC were investigated as a function of additives. The highest density of 4.98 $g/cm^2$ and permeability of 8221 were obtained to the specimen added $MoO_3$ 400 ppm, $SiO_2$ 100 ppm and CaO 200 ppm since the microstructures were compacted through reduction of pores in the specimen. The permeability was increased up to 13094 at $110^{\circ}C$ with increasing temperature of specimen, however, it was decreased precipitously to under 100 over $110^{\circ}C$. The exothermic behavior was observed that the temperature of specimens became $102^{\circ}C$ at 1MHz. In the consequence, the ferrite core developed by this research will maintain the stable electromagnetic properties since the temperature of ferrite core rose to $93^{\circ}C$ in the range of 10kHz to 450kHz bandwidth qualified for PLC.
