Frequently Asked Question
Questions asked by users might not always be phrased in the clearest way.
Is ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic stronger?
Accepted Answer
Ferrimagnetism is generally stronger than ferromagnetism. This is because in ferrimagnetic materials, the magnetic moments of neighboring atoms align antiparallel, but their magnitudes are unequal, resulting in a net magnetic moment. In contrast, ferromagnetic materials have parallel alignment of magnetic moments, leading to a strong magnetization. However, the strength of both types of magnetism depends on factors like the specific material and temperature.
